No, all my repos are hobby projects.
Respect, I know few who understand codecs on that level, let alone as hobby. For avoidance of doubt, I had freelance in mind. But either way, thank you for making all this available, I appreciate your work.
The code in this repo was greatly inspired by https://github.com/virinext/hevcesbrowser As well as the FFmpeg HEVC code.
I did not do much other than porting it.
Thanks for pointing this out! But I was really referring to the entire work, especially concerning the HDR tools. The profile 5->8.1 conversion made me reach out. I just chose a generic repo for this issue ;)
Yeah I realize now that the RPU conversion also requires a re-encode. Which basically would require a DoVi decode if the profile 5 is all you have. And at least for commercial use that would mean licensing a decoder.
However, we would come a long way when a profile 8.1 encode can be made to play correctly on a profile 5-only device.
Edit: play correctly
I don't understand the full range thing tbh, but I'm 100% certain that Dolby's business lies in licensing their patented stuff - especially the decoders.
Ah ok, thanks, now I understand :)
I'm having a couple of commercial projects at hand where your knowledge would be a great addition.
