I think the older discs were mainly Profile 5, where the enhancement layer includes both quarter-scale video and metadata. x265 doesn't support that. Newer discs would be Profile 5, where the enhancement layer is just RPU metadata. But that requires a properly "shaped" base layer specific to the source and metadata, which is Y'CtCp and dynamically adjusts to the currently-used subset of the PQ curve for greater precision.

I like DoVi as the short way to type it. I am an old fellow, and I hear DV I start thinking "Ah, 25 Mbps with 720x480 4:1:1 color in its NTSC variant." It's amazing what we can do with 25 Mbps a couple decades later!
