[DoVi_Scripts] Multi-Function Scripts for Dolby Vision processing and a lot more...

[wyup]

Please allow me to disagree. I mean HDR to HDR, although it doesn't change much.
When you convert HDR to SDR, you just compress data present in the source.
When you convert HDR to SDR, you can't fit all HDR range in a narrower SDR range, you have to discard something, so you lose data in the source. You choose your balance from different tonemapping algorithms.
When you go from SDR to HDR, you create/simulate data not in the source.
When upping nits, you just tonemap up the same content, like turning up brightness + contrast, or peak brightness on a tv. In that sense, you create/simulate as much as in HDR to SDR conversion, but you don't lose information. None of these conversions will be the same, but it might be interesting to try turning up the brightness while keeping the original grade as intact as possible. What I think you do with low nit grades like Romulus is tweaking up highlights, which is fine, but I'd just want the same image, only proportionally brighter, because tvs don't let you increase more brightness.

I am not familiar with Staxrip, but fast reading its wiki there are HDR to SDR functions although not HDR to HDR. I can choose from all libplacebo tonemapping options with Rigaya QSVEncC.

[tormento]

Much better to go for HLG than SDR.

Having run 6-2 and 3-1 on quite a few titles now, I've come across just a couple where the graph produced by 6-2 reports BT2020 in the mastering display info: The Empire Strikes Back and Inside Out 2 UK discs. So I've used the 21 option for 3-1 on these titles, just curious though what the visual significance is of BT2020 vs P3, and if I made the mistake of specifying P3 for these titles how things would change.

[Kuler087]

I've never tested if there was any visual difference but I don't think it matters that much.

Might be another bug using Windows 11 24h2. Looks like WMIC is deprecated and only available as a Feature on demand so the disk space check fails since WMIC is not present. Ive got the powershell command below which should calculate the freespace. Seems to run in command prompt (Assuming you set the letterPath variable first). Hopefully the command below should help you incoperate the free space check in the newer version of your scripts.


powershell -command "[math]::Floor((Get-WmiObject Win32_LogicalDisk -Filter "DeviceID='%letterpath%'").FreeSpace / 1GB)"

[Kuler087]

my win11 pc didnt get that update yet. I'll check it out

[Black Ops]

Is there any way to completely automate the workflow to generate hdr10+ metadata and inject it into the original. The davanci side of stuff (Scene Detect, Output blanking and generating hdr10+ metadata and export). Are there any 3rd party CLI tools that can automate this side of the workflow?

It gets quite tiresome to do this for multiple episodes of a TV show. In my case, i do this because my samsung qn90c 50 inch TV doesn't have dolby vision so HDR content is dimmed abit too much since it tonemaps the input based on MAXDML.

[Kuler087]

No, I don't think so.

[Black Ops]

I guess if I can’t automate it. Is there any way to stop the TV from tone mapping hdr10 unceccesarily and display a more 1:1 image?

[Kuler087]

With Dolby Vision content (generated or original), you can do that with LLDV and a high edid but if you have a bright TV (1000+), you need to find a cmv4.0 player because all the 2.9 players have a bug with lldv (https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1jBIGF8XTVi9VmDBZ8a5hEyongYMCDlUiLHU9n1f_S74/edit?gid=1222148710#gid=1222148710) and edid higher than 1000nits. If your TV is less than 1000nits, then the Ugoos AM6B+ is the perfect solution for any HDR10/HDR10plus display since it has a built-in edid injector and supports 12-bit FEL decoding as a bonus... Unfortunately, cmv4.0 is not supported in lldv on the ugoos but it supports everything else.

ATV and Shield support cmv4.0 LLDV but they require expensive HDfury products to force LLDV and don't support 12-bit FEL.

I made the move from 3.0.2 to 3.0.3 last week and have run into a couple of issues.

Each time I try to launch the GUI, I get an error "Windows cannot find 'pythonw' ". I rolled back my Python installation from 3.13 to 3.12.6 but that hasn't helped. I probably need to show the Python installation directory to DoVi_Scripts. How do I do that?

Also, how do I show DoVi_Scripts the path to my Dolby Encoding Engine and Dolby Vision Professional Tools installation directories?

I've copied the Python, DEE, and Dolby Vision tools folders into the 'tools' folder of DoVi_scripts, but that has not resolved the issue.

[Kuler087]

Each time I try to launch the GUI, I get an error "Windows cannot find 'pythonw' "

open a cli window and type: pip install pythonw

how do I show DoVi_Scripts the path to my Dolby Encoding Engine
path to dee is around lines 330 for the cli version
for the GUI version, its in tools\SETTINGS_GUI.bat

Dolby Vision Professional Tools installation directories

just put the exe in the tools folder without renaming it. You can also edit the path around lines: 338
for the GUI version, its in tools\SETTINGS_GUI.bat

[lemaireus]

open a cli window and type: pip install pythonw

Thank you, Kuler. The DEE issue is resolved now, and I've also added the Dolby Vision .exe files in the tools folder without renaming them.

Alas, the 'pythonw' issue remains. I and not familiar with CLI. Tried using the command prompt window to install Pythonw but failed. :(

The strange thing is that I wasn't getting the pythonw error while I was using DoVi_scripts 3.0.2.

Anyway, I'll let it rest at that for the moment. I'll stick to using DoVi_Scripts for 7.1 audio transcoding and that is working fine.

Thank you for helping out.

[Kuler087]

Strange. You could also try installing Python from the Windows Store.
The GUI should work with the default Python libraries but some workflows do require installing the libraries listed in the DS github page

[lemaireus]

Strange. You could also try installing Python from the Windows Store.

Strange indeed. I had initially installed Python from the link that you shared on the github page and I continued to get the missing 'pythonw'
message each time I tried launching the GUI.

I followed your suggestion and installed Python 3.13 from the Windows store, without uninstalling 3.12, and now everything works. DoVi_Scripts no longer flashes the missing 'pythonw' message and the GUI launches as it should. I should probably go ahead and uninstall Python 3.12 but since everything is working as it should, I am a little hesitant at the moment. :)

Anyhow, I finally have everything going. Thank you, once again!

[Kuler087]

Glad it worked. I'll add the info on the github page.
PS keep both python installations.

[lemaireus]

Uninstalled Python 3.12 and the GUI continues to launch flawlessly.

[lemaireus]

Glad it worked. I'll add the info on the github page.
PS keep both python installations.

Had uninstalled by the time a page refresh brought your message to my notice. No problem thus far, though. The GUI works with Python 3.13 installed from the Windows store.

[Kuler087]

all good then. If you notice that other workflows are not working, just re-install it. I think the heatmap and gamut workflow(7-3) requires it.

Sure, will do. Thank you!

[ac777103]

I've been using auto L5 without issue for many titles processed via 3-1. My rip of Bladerunner Final Cut gives crazy values though. Is there a recommended way around this?

[Kuler087]

yeah ''auto-L5 '' is never ideal and can sometimes output crazy values. It's always better / more accurate to measure the letterbox manually.

FYI, the correct L5 values for this movie is: 0,0,280,280

https://i.ibb.co/F8XHYsZ/Capture-d-cran-2024-11-14-144658.png

[ac777103]

many thanks.

[ac777103]

forgot to ask, which program do you use for measuring the letterbox manually?

[Kuler087]

avspmod, workflow 6-1

[ac777103]

I've used 6-2 without problem on around 60 UHD disc rips now, but have encountered a problem with Pacific Rim (UK release). It gets very close to the end and then there is an error about an incomplete file having been produced, and it crashes out. I thought there might be an issue with the rip so re-ripped with latest makemkv 1.17.8, and got the same error. Any ideas? There is nothing changing in the set up or file location, this one title persistently fails. I suppose a third party RPU could be injected, but puzzled as to what is happening here.

[Kuler087]

Yes, some rips might fail to be measured with madvr. It usually happens with TS/M2TS input but I've seen it too with some MKV rip on rare occasions and I don't think there's anything we can do about it. As a workaround, you can crop and enable prores around line 182: set crop.prores62=YES
My US mkv rip works fine for this movie though.

https://i.ibb.co/s23qsT1/Pacific-Rim-2013-BD-HDR-plot.png

[ac777103]

thanks, so could it be worth me ripping to a full disc backup, and then trying 6-2 using the TS bat file?

[Kuler087]

Yes, you could try the original M2TS.

The TS/MP4 or MKV bat files are all the same scripts. The .bat filename just determines the preferred container for muxing. It's not a script issue anyway.

Process finished.

Good evening. I always have these errors, whether in madvr DV encoding or original DV encoding. This code is from Dovi_Script GUI V1.0.0 BETA, but same code with DoVi_Scripts_MKV...:angry:

[Kuler087]

Looks like you did not install madvr or you're using an old non-beta version.
I believe madmeasureHDR.exe works only with the beta builds so go to the tools/madvr folder and click with admin rights on the install bat.

Also, make sure that you have installed lavfilters.

[Atari1971]

THANKS. It works with madvr, but original dolby encoding does not work. I installed all the apps, as well as "Dolby_Vision_Professional_Tools_v5.5.0"...

[Kuler087]

you have to put the .exe in the tools folder without renaming them.

[Atari1971]

I put all the .exe from the dolby folder into the tools folder. It doesn't work

[Kuler087]

show me the logs, it sure works.

it looks like you did not install avisynth plus.. please read the installation instructions or watch the installation video tutorial.

[Atari1971]

I watched the tutorial and installed all the requested apps

[Kuler087]

well the error your getting is because of your avisynthplus installation. It's on your end so I cant help you more.

[Atari1971]

THANKS. I actually reinstalled avisynth+. It seems to work. To encode with the Dolby encoder, you have to click the Generate CM button?

[Kuler087]

Yes CM = Dolby CM_Analyze.exe

[Atari1971]

thanks :)

I'm sorry, but I have a new error...

[Kuler087]

no idea but it's on your end. Your input is only 38 frames?

[Atari1971]

No, 216686 frames

[Kuler087]

then it sounds like cm_analyze crashed. I have this issue too but only on my Windows 11 PC, so there's nothing we can do about it since it seems CM just doesn't like win11.
It crashes after about 15 000frames on my end. You could open a ticket on the Dolby forum.

[Atari1971]

Ah OK :). What is the difference between MadVR and Dolby encoding?

[Kuler087]

Dolby is the official way to generate the metadata. Madvr generates the metadata the same way but it calculates the average brightness quite differently and can introduce brightness instability between shots.

As a workaround to CM, you can use Resolve (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FVSh3oGqfXY).

[Atari1971]

All right. Is there a tutorial for using an HDR10 file in Resolve and exporting the Dolby XML file?

[Kuler087]

yes click on the link i just gave you
