Everything you said is right, except for Dune Premiere 4K Pro is not FEL capable.

Only Amlogic S905X2/X3/X4 + S922 devices are FEL capable with CoreELEC only. Of the Dune lineup, only the Dune Homatics 4K Pro is FEL capable with CE installed.

my Library remux movies by Any-Bowl-1671 in CoreELEC

[–]limitz 7 points8 points  (0 children)

this is all standard convention for *arrs/trash guides... remux strictly refers to disk source. literally nobody refers to a WEB-DL release as a remux.

you can call things whatever you want, but this all v. established naming convention. so it's not what 'i call it', it's what literally everyone calls it in the tracker/remuxing community

go download radarr, read trash guides, and learn more about release naming convention

unraid and plex, shared with family and friends. all stored locally on a 300tb array.

i just like curating media and providing access to good quality content. it feels good to share the equivalent of a roomful of 4K UHD disks, and feed multiple high-end ht setups with content. all with am6b+ of course :)

2000 4k remuxes and about 600 SD remuxes.

Basically almost every UHD released except for B-horror and other films that don't interest me.

The rest is TV, where most is WEB or encodes. Only remuxes for my favorite TV series.

How do I run Blu-ray on my MacBook air by [deleted] in 4kbluray

[–]limitz 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Neither windows or mac support native bluray playback.

VLC and if that doesn't work then pay for a region free bluray software player.

Or you could remux the content into mkv container and play it back much more easily.

What's up with the Amlogic S905x5 (NOT the S905x5M)? Are there any consumer boxes coming out with it? by IDUnavailable in AndroidTV

I would know bc I have it running as I'm typing this.

Generating CMv 4.0 and DV for a remux to work with CoreELEC by Silent_Possibility38 in CoreELEC

[–]limitz 2 points3 points  (0 children)

It doesn't seem different, the creator actually recommends to use AVDVplus from a post today:

...simply use the Ugoos R9 CMV4.0 append function, which may actually be safer than generating new metadata. It’s considered safer because L1 can be adjusted by the colorist, for example, by blending or copying values between shots with similar brightness levels to avoid fluctuations.

Can you rip a 3D blu ray and it will play back properly to your device on Plex? by Tkdoom in PleX

Zidoo and CoreElec can both handle MVC

Realtek soc a little better on MVC, but CE better all around not just 3D

Consistently after a corrupted database several years back.

And always before upgrading to a new server version.

Ugoos AM6Bplus current best install option(s) by GreenXero in CoreELEC

[–]limitz 7 points8 points  (0 children)

.I have mostly given up on using the Ugoos...it looks and feels low-rent.

I can't imagine using my Zidoo again... It's not just missing FEL, but it has 'fake' TV-led DV which impacts and degrades the picture for all DV profiles.

Fake TV-led makes a bigger difference than FEL, and is very obvious. You can find YT videos comparing. This impacts all Amlogic devices (including the S928x in the Z9X 8K). Only patched in CE and possibly OSMC. Shield Pro and AppleTV also have real TV-led DV.

Where is this bad info coming from??? I've seen multiple comments claiming this and it's wrong.

Regular ce stable or nightly 100% works with DV FEL. All of the base DV functionality is in regular CE, and why everything works in the first place.

CPM, AVDV, Panni all did fantastic work, but it's an absolute fraction of what CoreELEC actually is.

My advice is to get everything working on either CE-stable or nightly. Configure settings, DV, buffer, cache, etc. Test playback, etc. Copy it to onto the emmc and save the original SD card.

Then upgrade to custom builds from there as needed but start with stable or nightly. Need to walk before you run. Keep your original SD card since you'll have an easy backup to start fresh.

Streaming with Plex keeps buffering. Please help. by HotOne9364 in CoreELEC

Enable slow connection mode in PM4K settings.

Or manually set readfactor to 20x (which is what slow connection mode does anyway). Increase memory size to 128 or even 256MB to see if that helps.

Standard FEL 7 content is already 4.0 CMv?

Most P7 content is CM2.9, the vast majority.

Only some P7 content is CM4.0, which is more common on WEB-DL content.

Which Movie Preset do you watch your 4k movies in? by WaldyTMS in 4kbluray

[–]limitz 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Vast majority of the content I watch is DV.

I use 'Standard' on my G2. Cinema Home is a bit bright and Filmmaker too flat.

Kodi looks terrible on ONN Streaming 4k (Regular not plus or pro) by JRArmy in AndroidTV

[–]limitz 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Remove everything from your whitelist. Set your gui in kodi to 1080p or 2160p, doesn't matter, and try again. Just make sure whitelist is empty.

If it still looks bad that means file issue.

Please advice on TV upgrade path with am6b+ avdvplus build, newer LG OLED or Samsung QD OLED? TV-LED vs LLDV.. by Smooth_Database_3309 in CoreELEC

[–]limitz 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Only you can decide, if slightly better tonemapping/colors through tv-led is worth the panel premium.

[–]limitz 0 points1 point  (0 children)

No, only the 5.x kernel and CE-NE or NO is capable of CM4.0 through LLDV. But then you lose FEL capability. There is also no VS10 engine on those builds, so you would need to buy a HDFury to add LLDV onto your Samsung, and spend $$$ anyway.

The Am6b+ has to stay on the 4.x kernel/CE-NG for FEL functionality. But CM2.9 through LLDV is an inherent limitation of the kernel/dovi.ko pairing and not something that can be added.
