cant get transcoding to work

[caleb87]

Have you ever used dovi_tool? So many technical terms, I'm kind of lost. I used the command below to produce a BL_RPU.hevc file, but I couldn't figure out how to replace the mkv 7.6 with 8. I wonder if DV 5 would be even more compatible? Or a command to just strip it all together? I don't need insane quality and wish I had bought standard blurays instead of 4k now lol.

Code:

ffmpeg -i indi.mkv -c:v copy -bsf:v hevc_mp4toannexb -f hevc - | dovi_tool -m 2 convert --discard -
