A15-HEVC

[cpm-code]

The release is only proven out for HEVC 4K, plenty wrong with other formats and not in plans to fix, sharing as many people asked.

There are now also other great build out there covering more formats and SoC (players)

This discussion was created from the release A15-HEVC.

It no longer supports dovi in BDMV/ISO format and plays according to HDR10. The A14 doesn't have this bug.Changing Lanes 2002.bdmv, the italian job 1969.bdmv,1917 2019.bdmv, catch me if you can 2002.iso

[Sultantiran]

It turns out that now we are limited to playing files only in the mkv container? m2ts no longer work? I'm not talking about full-fledged work with iso in the form of navigating through the disc menu, but shouldn't a direct launch of a movie in iso work with a full-fledged DV FEL? Player Ugoos AM6B+.

[cpm-code]

Will be a defect, I only use mkv so not checked DTDL for a long time, will check next week.

Update: I just tried an m2ts and is working fine for FEL DV. Do you have a sample not working for you?

[bluesea168]

It should refer to bdmv-->stream-->m2ts, which cannot play Dolby Vision, and also includes index.bdmv or mpls.

[cpm-code]

yep some m2ts are ok, found some that are not, looks like upgrade to FFmpeg 8.0.1 means cannot find the DV side data for some, will put in a work around for now:

• Has 2 streams at least
• Stream @ Index 0 is HEVC with a non-EL marker id
• Stream @ Index 1 is HEVC with a EL marker id (0x1015)

Then will presume it is DV P7 and fabricate the DV side data, original code already assumed the BL was Stream 0, and cannot imagine EL not being on 1, but sure we will find out soon enough!

You can test using FFmpeg 8.0.1 ffprobe (make sure you installed FFmpeg with bluray lib support)

ffprobe -hide_banner -probesize 200M -analyzeduration 200M -select_streams v -show_entries stream=index,id,codec_name,codec_type -of json test.m2ts

ok - immediatley found one EL on stream index 8! need to check EL on any index other than 0 which must be BL then:

Thank you, A15.1 only resolved some of the playback issues. Some FELs (the italian job 1969) have out-of-sync subtitles, some FELs (changing lanes 2002) play with a black screen without subtitles or sound, and AML fps are all zero.
And the AM6 became unresponsive, and the power cord had to be unplugged.

Changing Lanes 2002

External PGS subtitles can no longer be displayed

There are now also other great build out there covering more formats and SoC (players)

And what would those be? This is the only one I know other than the official Coreelec repo.

[coopzr]

might be referring to avdvplus and U3k.

Lots of discussion regarding these builds starting from the release announcement post. You will learn lots, especially about the new builds somewhere in the newest 90 pages of that thread.

[Sunset-1982]

U3k (jamals build, B11) and avdvplus' build (R3) are the most advanced builds out there

[bluesea168]

No matter whose build version it is, there are minor issues like screen flickering and lag, and subtitles being out of sync.

[cpm-code]

Just a note to redirect people to @avdvplus builds, that is being updated regularly and could be a good point for those wanting updates and fixes.

Thanks for all the support and good wishes over the past couple of years.

Any future release here will for S922X (Ugoos AM6B+) and only focused on HEVC which is not what most want so taking the opportunity to take a back seat again and let the others drive the complete feature set release.

[bluesea168]

cpm ng-kodi22，Fel，The audio and subtitles are not synchronized; both are delayed.
External subtitles can now be displayed.

[cpm-code]

Would redirect you to the @avdvplus build and see if the issues you are having can be addressed there.

No longer working on this outside my personal builds which obviously work fine for my needs.

Thanks

[bluesea168]

Okay, thank you for your great contribution.
