Dynamic conversion of HDR10+ SEI to DV P8 NAL

Thanks - but I only get the message

The file you are trying to download is no longer available

seems it got deleted, I uploaded it here:

Thanks - much appreciated!

Here it is 9.18 MB file on MEGA.

For the clips that I could find and manually compare from your comparison video, this version seems to reduce the differences in averages you highlighted with arrows. Be interesting to see how it goes on a regenerated comparison.

I like what you did. It might be a bit too much in some cases but overall it is an improvement and it makes the average_pq closer to the original DV.

I’ve compared 10 different movies and here are the files if you want to fine-tune the process. I’m going to use your custom dovi_tool in my DoVi_Scripts :slight_smile: thank you and great job!

I did notice that in a few of those test scenes. It seemed to struggle a bit on scenes with lots of low nit pixels and only a few bright ones.

I might see what can be done looking by some actual content and not test scenes.

That link asked me to send a request for access which I did. I’d send you the gmail address I used for that request, but I can’t work out how to send a private message to you here…

whoops, forgot to allow external access. It should work now

Hi Cpm
Just a question

I have a lg cx, playng a movie with dolby vision fel at on demand mode.

The colour space, should be bt2020 or bt.709 for dolby vision?

Thanks in advance

It does not matter what it shows, it can be set to show BT 2020, with appropriate option, but it makes no difference to final picture quality.

Only seen it make a difference on older TV like LG E8, I think would make no difference on your CX as Sholander mentioned.

Anyone know if CE Kodi has a cache for the skin somewhere - been trying to add additional details to the Player Process Overlay:

xbmc/addons/skin.estuary/xml/DialogPlayerProcessInfo.xml

But not seeing any difference when running the changed build - can delete items from it and they still show up.

thx

You need copy the whole skin, to addons folder, than rename the folder, and add the new name to the addon.xml. eg. estuarymod.

thanks, what I am doing is changing the one being deployed in the tar, so I thought should be replacing it each time I update with the tar, but maybe not will take a look, thanks.

/usr/share/kodi/addons/skin.estuary

copy to the addons folder …

@cpm
When you will be ready, with the playerprocessinfo modifications, please share, Im curious what you cook. :slightly_smiling_face:

Just exposing some more values from the video to the skin.

Will share when I get something useful, but probably need to add to the kodi skin yourself at first.

To make changes to the skin that will stick after reboot, you first have to make following changes, because only the skin that resides in “storage/.kodi/addons” accepts changes. Here is how to do it:

  1. With Kodi File Manager from “root/share/kodi/addons” copy folder “skin.estuary” to your computer.
  2. On computer rename skin folder to “skin.estuaryV3”
  3. Open this folder and edit first line in “addon.xml” like this:

Edit first line:
addon id=“skin.estuary” version=“4.0.0” name=“Estuary” provider-name=“phil65, Ichabod Fletchman”>

like this:
addon id=“skin.estuaryV3” version=“4.0.0” name=“Estuary(V3)” provider-name=“phil65, Ichabod Fletchman”>

  1. Save and Copy this new skin “skin.estuaryV3” to storage/.kodi/addons folder.

  2. Reboot

  3. Go to Settings/System/Add-ons/My add-ons/Look and feel/Skin and there enable your new Estuary(V3) to use it.

Any changes that you make in this new skin will stay after reboot.
