dvhe and extracting dolby vision info?

[jriker1]

I have an MP4 file that has an HEVC encoded video in it. I extracted the video track and comes up as a DVHE file. Tried running

dovi_tool extract-rpu

against it but gave a:

Error: Invalid input file type

Tried renaming the extension to H265 but gave a:

Error: get: out of bounds

Any idea what's up? Never had a MP4 HEVC encoded file before, usually MKV so using different tools to extract but wasn't sure what I should be doing in this case.

What did you do to fix this?

I'm having the same error.

In my case, it's a Dolby Vision demo file.

MediaInfo is exactly the same between this .ts file and the other ones I remuxed into MKV. But this particular file loses Dolby Vision info when remuxing unlike the others.

I figured I could use dovi_tool to extract the Dolby Vision info and re-inject it into the MKV, but I need to figure out this error.
