if the X700/X800(M2) played BDMV from USB that would be useful for me. I came across one positive reference to that via a search, but I guess there are some owners on this forum who may be able to confirm.

thanks for clarifying. And it looks like I'll be stuck with selecting a forced/default sub track manually? So many films have these. In any event, it will be useful for me to have a DV-capable disc player to give me a reference for playback from other sources.

I notice that some films are divided into multiple m2ts files. What should we do in that case? What's the good way to identify which m2ts files are part of the film? And then we just drag all those files into tsmuxer and click m2ts muxing?

add in tsmuxer the .mpls file of the main movie from the playlist folder.
in order to find out the correct playlist, you can use makemkv, mkvtoolnix, bdinfo etc.. .

Identify the correct mpls file, either on the interweb or by opening the disk with makemkv.
Drag that mpls file into tsmuxer, job done.

Get the Oppo clone and rip to iso or BDMV.
Subtitles will work as if you was playing the disk.
You can also use external subs with the .forced flag if you want to add subtitles to a title.

My X700 just arrived. I'm connected to my network files via the Kodi UPnP shared library service. All my mkv's show, but my test .ts/.m2ts file does not. Any ideas?

Tried the AVCHD\BDMV folder approach on USB, did not work.

the Firestick TV does it right but no FEL / lossless audio support.

It's already known that the oppos (plus cambridge uhd) and its clone deliver picture perfect dolby vision.

mkv didn't lose the battle with DV, quite the opposite actually. It's certainly no fault of the container that no devices can currently play them to their full potential. The standard has been established, and it's now just up to the hardware/software to catch up.
