Dolby Vision not working on 7.24 with single layer mp4 files

I have never seen this kind of soundtrack

Audio
ID : 2
Format : mlpa
Codec-ID : mlpa
Dauer : 1 min 3s
Bitrate : 6 694 kb/s
maximale Bitrate : 9 215 kb/s
Stream-Größe : 50,7 MiB (33%)
Default : Ja
AlternateGroup/String : 1
Tagging-Datum : UTC 2019-11-06 18:25:56

VLC shows me:

Codec is not supported:
VLC was unable to decode the format “mlpa” (No description for this codec)

mp4box does that apparently
https://makemkv.com/forum/viewtopic.php?p=77692

I’ll try that too…

It’s not mp4box, it’s how the new version of ffmpeg extracts TrueHD audio.

You should first try to read all the past links (the mrmc forum, the makemkv one… etc) so you can get more context.

I should probably… but will take a day
I just failing to get just a video from dvdfab. I can not deselect the audio track

Edit: DV and AAC 7.1 works.

…same here.

Right click -> Deselect all audio tracks.

many thx :sunglasses:

Correction on the support I mentioned earlier, TrueHD currently won’t work in an MP4 with Dolby Vision at the moment inside of Plex on Android, but it will do soon. We need to apply some changes, so it might not be available until v7.26.

Nice to hear that you want to make it possible :star_struck::ok_hand:

Oh no, left some files converting before :slightly_frowning_face:

My test with DV MP4 and DTS-HD Master 5.1 is successful. :partying_face::star_struck:
Everything is recognized correctly. Also with SRT subtitles :ok_hand:
(MP4 SL DV + EAC3 + DTS HD Master / Subs external (SRT))

BUT since the beta 7.24 I have problems with DTS-HD. Also with this MP4 DV File.

I have already reported this here:

I have also switched between the new and old player but it makes no difference. With the current public 7.23 version, there are no problems with the passthrough dts-hd. I tested everything … DTS High Res / Master 5.1 / 7.1.

Does anyone have the same dropouts with dts-hd passthrough to av?

Good to hear that :slight_smile:

BTW, is there any info about if dual layer Dolby Vision .mp4s are ever going to be supported?

Sorry I haven’t got round to posting those legs will get onto it over the weekend.

Off topic here loving the new app theme being a dark grey. Would be great to have the option to a black theme too for those of us with Oled TVs :grinning_face_with_smiling_eyes:

Here is the log when trying to play HDR content and it crashes

Hope I’ve done it correctly

Does anyone have an idea how to assign a language to the soundtrack I am extracting with FFmpeg?

Currently this is recognized as “Unknown”…

Did you use mkvtoolnix? There you can name the respective audio line

You can’t use mkvtoolnix to create Dolby Vision mp4 files.
