Does jellyfin-ffmpeg have the capability to convert from DV profile 7.6 to 8.1?
Some of my movies that are natively DV 7.6 have some scenes with much higher brightness than others. When playing back the title after the conversion to just HDR10 (using jellyfin-ffmpeg), my TV only goes into HDR mode and most scenes, except the ones with the very high brightness, look overly dim. I believe this is because the min and max luminance value are relative to the entire movie, rather than per-scene like DV has.
I recently stumbled upon this repo with a script that combines
Does jellyfin-ffmpeg have the ability to just strip out the layer that's special to profile 7.6?

I recently stumbled upon this repo with a script that combines
dovi_tool
with the mkvtoolnix
tools to strip out only the extra layer that profile 7.6 has on top of 8.1. The resulting mkv is picked up as a DV title by Jellyfin, and importantly, my TV will swap into DV mode.Does jellyfin-ffmpeg have the ability to just strip out the layer that's special to profile 7.6?
