Dolby Vision support?

Post by tygeezy »

Does the current version of handbrake support Dolby Vision and if not are there plans to support it? Both makemkv and mkvtoolnix were recently updated to be able to support ripping and joining UHD's into MKV with Dolby Vision.

I downloaded the nightly version of HandBrake-20230822-fdae11002-x86_64-Win_GUI. Dolby Vision can be transcoded if Colorspace filters are set to OFF. It works. But, if I need to recode Dolby Vision to BT.709, or another color type, then this does not work. Can you add this function to convert Dolby Vision to other colorspace ?

Yes, HB supports some DV profiles with appropriate 10-bit codecs.

If you want to convert to BT.709, HB can do the tone mapping to SDR.
