I just flashed the minix u22 with the ugoos am6 0.4 firmware and all my mkv rips trigger dolby vision. I'm using the fandangos build. In the settings you can choose between player led and tv led, I did tv led. Dolby atoms pass thru working also. Only problem I have is when stopping the movie, it does not go back to the kodi menu.
Can you point me in the direction of the custom AM6 firmware for the Minix. Thanks

Hi, are you convinced it is correctly processing the FEL stream from the MKV?

Is playback smooth or is their micro stutters and / or Pauses?

Thank you.
Yes, I have a x1100es to compare it to. Even aquaman looks exactly like the Blu-ray.

I have the same TV, do you prefer DV to HDR even if it is less bright?
Difference is too subtle to worry about

I thought I read that aquaman was problematic. I tried aquaman, Gemini man, ready player one and Alita battle angel. All look exactly like the Blu-ray version.

yep, I agree. this is the best movie to verify if FEL is processed by the device.

So it's save to assume that Ugoos and Minix with custom firmware do support the FEL DV? And I know there is also Google TV with Chromecast ( don't onow wether it truly supports it or not ). What's your opinion about it?

I don't know, I didn't receive mine yet. I'm sure someone will try the ending credits of Power Rangers and confirm soon.

I'm not sure if the Chromecast really supports FEL eventhough there is FEL noise when you play the sample with fake DV layer. I'm saying this because Manix and I tested the total recall and there was no FEL processed. We didn't share because Manix messed up the colors so I'm not sure about the accuracy of that comparison (manix has to re-do). So even if the SOC supports dual video decoding, I think if the DV SDK doesn't, then you don't get FEL DV.

I think I've already mention but the Ugoos definitely processes the FEL on Power Rangers - the end credits are white rather than grey when not processing the FEL.

Hey folks, stopped ripping a couple years ago waiting for DV ripping to be possible. Is there a TLDR on where we're at with ripping this format? I assume it all works by now and its just finding a good enough player?
