Hi y'all I've was up all night and did not get this to work properly perhaps am I doing something wrongthelittleworm wrote: ↑Wed Dec 26, 2018 10:37 pmSo apparently there's a method to backup UHD ISO's into MP4's that triggers Dolby Vision on an LG or Vizio television app via USB. I made this thread in the hopes we can figure out a way to reconvert this into MKV. The procecure is the following -
1. Make ISO of movie. I have only tested this with Black Panther since that's the only one I own. I will be buying Gladiator this weekend to test out though.
2. Use TS Muxer to open the ISO. Find the correct M2TS file and demux the following files:
A. HEVC1 in 4K (Base layer)
B. HEVC 2 in 1080p (this is the dolby vision enhancement layer)
C. Audio track which you will have to convert to AC3. This is a hard line limitation- you need to use AC3!!!
3. Once you have HEVC1, HEVC2, and the Audio track. Run Dolby Vision MP4Muxer (https://github.com/DolbyLaboratories/dlb_mp4base)
DolbyVision MP4 Muxer only works in Command Prompt so you have to navigate to the corresponding folders where the files are and type
mp4muxer --dv-profile 7 --input-file (baselayername.hevc1) --input-file (dvlayername.hevc2) --input-file (audio.ac3) --media-lang eng --output-file (nameofmovie).mp4
*Right now we are limited to only MP4 and AC3 audio. Hoping we figure out an MKV solution.
It sounds like its complicated, but it isn't. The entire process took me an hour to figure out, but once I did it, I sold my Xbox One X, because I'm now using my LG USB to play Dolby Vision MP4's! Hopefully this starts a discussion.
this isn't alchemy, you can't make Dolby Vision out of something that doesn't have Dolby Vision to begin with...Gibbe21 wrote: ↑Tue Nov 05, 2019 2:23 pm

The step I'm having issues with is the command step I always get error massage the command does not exist internal external.
And I've tried granolas app which is super nice but get error massage the movie file does not have a Dolby vision video track
The movie I'm trying with is full uhd disc Avengers infinity war
Best regards
P.s does granola have a newer version available for download I'm having version 2.0

Anyway thanks, and ya if it says your movie does not have dolby vision then it won't make you a file with dolby vision 
do as it says, and use a different movie.Hi, I have checked your guide, is there anyway to do it without dvdfab? I can’t afford this software, regardsyusesope wrote: ↑Sun Nov 03, 2019 10:24 amThank you both for your feedback.
it's magic!RESET_9999 wrote: ↑Sat Nov 02, 2019 7:58 pmI tried again with a movie and it works with the htpc. i wonder why it didnt work when i tried a couple days ago(didnt update any software since then)
Thanks but the credit also goes to the user likeadoc (look HERE).
I assume, the Single Layer files. Excellent news anyway!
Correct . We must inform the developers (Plex, MrMC, etc.) about the existence of this possibility and they will implement the correct decoding (as did the developers of LAV Filters).
Correct again. I've just updated my "HOW TO".
FYI, Atmos filed with Dolby Vision will NOT play back on the Shield 2019. Support for that has not been added yet and would need to be added by the devs.DaMacFunkin wrote: ↑Tue Nov 05, 2019 8:25 pmHello,
Just got the latest Plex beta with my Shield Pro 2019, is there a definitive guide how to create these DV Single layer files with Atmos please?
Thank you.
did you try LPCM inside an mp4 container with the new Shield? it doesnt work with the old shield, no audio at all.FusionNeo wrote: ↑Wed Nov 06, 2019 4:01 pmFYI, Atmos filed with Dolby Vision will NOT play back on the Shield 2019.

Thank you.
The best you can do, at the moment, is LPCM 7.1 (which is lossless audio, just without the Atmos metadata.)
Also, DVDFab is a requirement to making these rips. They have a proprietary way of making Single Layer Dolby Vision rips which has yet to be replicated.
Yes. I still need to do more testing, but audio works in LPCM. The only thing is my receiver is reporting the audio input as Dolby Digital+. Like I said, more testing is needed.RESET_9999 wrote: ↑Wed Nov 06, 2019 4:07 pmdid you try LPCM inside an mp4 container with the new Shield? it doesnt work with the old shield, no audio at all.FusionNeo wrote: ↑Wed Nov 06, 2019 4:01 pmFYI, Atmos filed with Dolby Vision will NOT play back on the Shield 2019.

I'm having the same issue, seems to be about 200ms.DaMacFunkin wrote: ↑Wed Nov 06, 2019 10:58 pmHi Yusesope,
Followed your guide and now have a Dolby Vision back up of Casino Royale playing on shield 2019, looks stunning, but the DTS/HD is slightly out of synch, we need a way of determining the correct delay before mixing and the command to correct it - can you add this information please?
Thank you.
