1) I got the prompt that the file did not have any 'Meta data' for HDR, so I don't know if that means it is not encoded with that or what. 2) Primarily, since your interface was truncating all the prompts where I am supposed to select the options that I show clearly in the pictures in my above post, I could not continue to use it. (Personally, as far as the functionality of your program, I think that is more important so that one can actually select those options and not be frozen at that point where you cannot continue with the program) I'm thinking perhaps of loading the previous instance of your program because the interface thing changed right after downloading your new stable version. But yes, as per (1) it would be good to know why the program said there was not any 'HDR Meta data' and what that means. I just processed it thankfully through Handbrake (although I prefer the results of your program quite a bit more) and it processed just fine and I THINK looks alright. I used the BT709 filter. I took some snippets directly from this 61 Gig UHD/HDR file and I'm uploading it to my Google Pictures folder, it's going to take about 14 minutes and then I'll try to post a link to it here. I've not done that before with GP's, and my site is currently down due to having to do something with my hosting, so hopefully this will work. I tried to choose the smallest snippet (around 245 Megs as opposed to 350 Megs) It WOULD be a very good thing to know though that if I do get that prompt as I have shown the picture above, do I then still try to do an HDR-SDR conversion, or do I just skip that part? WHAT do I do when I see this prompt...? Okay, here you go... I hope it works. https://photos.app.goo.gl/HYcAoYQP2hUTtuXeA I think you can choose 'download' from the 3 dots on the upper right. |

Okay... Well one thing I did find out was that, yes, the problem with 'Scaling' or whatever you'd call it to be able to see the full option windows has to do with your new version. It DOES show with your older version, so just the new version does that. So, using the 2nd to last version I was at least able to see the full option windows and select the options. I still got the prompt that the HDR/HLG metadata was missing, so I tried to do the encode straight with no HDR conversion, but the resulting file reading it with MediaInfo still showed the colorspace to be 2020 and it showed Dolby Vision. So, I'm running it again with the HDR conversion to see what the difference is.
***EDIT I think with this new UHD file (whether it is HDR or not) at least seems to be encoding through CleverFFmpeg okay. I'm trying one snippet with HDR conversion and one snippet without in order to compare them. So, at least if this works, then with your older version I can at least run the program and choose the options. AND, if the new UHD file is indeed 'Okay', then that will pretty much solve what I need to do. The ONLY thing again, and I'm sorry to keep mentioning it, but if I do get that prompt with the 'HDR/HLG metadata missing' do I just then assume I DON'T need to use the HDR conversion? The MediaInfo still says that it has Dolby Vision, so I don't know how that impacts it. But, at least in doing these two encodes, one with and one without the HDR conversion, perhaps I can get an idea as to which one looks 'right'... ***EDIT 2 Yep... in comparing the two encodes, the one where I did the HDR conversion looks a LOT brighter and probably the way it should be, so I'm trying to do the whole film that way now. I guess that MIGHT answer my pesky question then, that I DO indeed have to use the HDR conversion even though I get that prompt. HOPEFULLY, if nothing goes wrong now with the file, and the encode finishes, I should have a nice 1080 print which I bet will look a LOT better than the one I did with Handbrake...

... and then I get this...
I SWEAR I am so damn F****d with this! Nothing F'n works! I F***'n give up man, GEEZ...! Handbrake did it just fine, although I don't think it looks as good.

If the colors are correct, you can simply re-encode it as you wish. If the colors are pale and lack contrast, re-encode it with tone mapping (HDR to SDR). As for the missing buttons, that's a high DPI scaling problem that I still need to fix. |

Hey, Mr. ProWo! I wanted to ask you your opinion if I may please...
I notice on the last few encodes that when converting from UHD to HD using Mobius and a desaturation of '2' (default) the result seems like it comes out rather bright. Just for comparison, I also tried HandBrake which of course does not give you the choices that your program does, but the brightness seemed to look better, more natural. Any thoughts...? Should I try different settings when using CleverFFMpeg? I thought maybe I'd try the 'Haber' I think it's called, and I chose a desaturation of '1' just to see how it looks. I would really appreciate any input you might have about this. Thank you! ***EDIT Hmmm... Interesting. I checked the encode so far (DAMN your program is fast!) and I compared it to the original UHD file played by KM Player, and you know, I don't know if I just happened to guess it right, but with the 2 changed settings I mentioned above, the resulting picture looks pretty damn good! I see no difference. That's a good thing, right? Thanks! Last edited by Lathe; 14th October 2024 at 05:16. |

When somebody has taken the time to create/produce a professional recording why would anybody want to slap dynamic range compression on it afterwards...

But ffmpeg never encode AC3 with DRC, like other encoders.

It's a decoder setting, not an encoder setting.
See here: https://www.ffmpeg.org/ffmpeg-codecs...ecoder-Options The user choice remains, only the setting has been changed. |

Hey ProWo, I wanted to get your advice (and any others of course) as to what to do with this UHD 4k Blu-ray that I would normally use your program to convert from UHD-HD and from HDR-SDR. I came across this before where I guess the full 4k rip has 2 video files. It was explained to me that the smaller 2nd video file is the DV information.
So, when I choose this file to load into Clever FFMpeg, do I just choose the entire MKV file with all the information like I normally do, and will Clever FFMpeg 'Know' what to do with those 2 video files? Or, will I have to select ONE of them, the primary, larger one, and then Clever FFMpeg will be able to process that okay? It seems like I tried this before and Clever FFMpeg threw an error either in loading or even like 2/3 the way through encoding. What do I do...? Thank you kindly for the help! Here is the MediaInfo file for the 2 video files: Video #1 ID : 4113 (0x1011) Menu ID : 1 (0x1) Format : HEVC Format/Info : High Efficiency Video Coding Format profile : Main 10@L5.1@High HDR format : SMPTE ST 2086, HDR10 compatible Codec ID : 36 Duration : 1 h 27 min Width : 3 840 pixels Height : 2 160 pixels Display aspect ratio : 16:9 Frame rate : 24.000 FPS Color space : YUV Chroma subsampling : 4:2:0 (Type 2) Bit depth : 10 bits Color range : Limited Color primaries : BT.2020 Transfer characteristics : PQ Matrix coefficients : BT.2020 non-constant Mastering display color primaries : Display P3 Mastering display luminance : min: 0.0001 cd/m2, max: 1000 cd/m2 Maximum Content Light Level : 350 cd/m2 Maximum Frame-Average Light Level : 190 cd/m2 Video #2 ID : 4117 (0x1015) Menu ID : 1 (0x1) Format : HEVC Format/Info : High Efficiency Video Coding Format profile : Main 10@L5.1@High HDR format : SMPTE ST 2086, HDR10 compatible Codec ID : 36 Duration : 1 h 27 min Width : 1 920 pixels Height : 1 080 pixels Display aspect ratio : 16:9 Frame rate : 24.000 FPS Color space : YUV Chroma subsampling : 4:2:0 (Type 2) Bit depth : 10 bits Color range : Limited Color primaries : BT.2020 Transfer characteristics : PQ Matrix coefficients : BT.2020 non-constant Mastering display color primaries : Display P3 Mastering display luminance : min: 0.0001 cd/m2, max: 1000 cd/m2 Last edited by Lathe; 7th November 2024 at 05:14.
