Hi,

as of now I am doing DV baking in windows with avisynth dovibaker and Dovi tools by reset (thanks!)

I was wondering, if this (DV baking) is possible in Linux, even with different tools /scripts or softwares?

Thank you

Same exact thing should just work, you just need to compile the thing if there's no Linux pre-built binary available.

I have dovi_tool and hdr10plus_tool compiled for Linux (64-bit). You can get them from my server: https://nextcloud.teambelgium.net/s/FiSaYPakSaTiPxS

the process is fairly platform agnostic afaik, Reset's Dovi_Scripts is just automating other tools for this process:

1. extract EL w/ dovi_tool
2. make avisynth script w/ DoviBaker
3. encode script w/ x265 or ffmpeg or whatever encoding tool works for you

and then you have the optional step of re-injecting the RPU (converting to P8.1 in the process) if you want to keep DV metadata w/ dovi_tool again.

how do u use avisyth which is windows app, tools like dovi baker (windows based avisynth filter) and specially patched x265.exe (for dv encoding) on linux

I am not an expert on any of these things or cross platform working, so a detailed reply for guidance would be really helpful. thanks.

Compile them on Linux, or maybe they are available on some package managers, or maybe even use Wine.
They are not Windows based.

i tried wine but i'm on a headless server so its stuck bcoz apparently avisynth requires GUI?

AviSynth requires no GUI, it is 'just' a frameserver hanging in between frame source and frame sink, not knowing if the script it runs had anything to do with a GUI
