Hdr metadata
Hi, I hope among you there is someone who has enough knowledge to answer me.
The question is simple, but I don't know the answer. When in a 4k bluray, the main movie is in a single m2ts file, creating a UNTOUCHED version, muxing the track with mkvtoolnix, the hdr metadata viewable with mediainfo remains unchanged, and therefore you can insert in x265 encoder for the eventual encoding , whether the source is the bluray 4k, whether the source is the UNTOUCHED.mkv version. The problem arises when in the 4k bluray, the main video is split into multiple m2ts files. Each of them shows different hdr metadata in mediainfo, and by creating the UNTOUCHED.mkv version muxed with mkvtoolnix, it will display the metadata of the first .m2ts bluray playlist file. I take as an example the bluray 4k, Alita - Battle Angel. The main movie is in the playlist: 00800.mpls which in turn contains 4 m2ts files (as reported by the BDInfo tool): 00687.m2ts (00:00:35) 00688.m2ts (01:55:51) 00674.m2ts (00:02:01) 00689.m2ts (00:03:28) The hdr metadata shown by mediainfo (for the file Alita - Battle Angel [UNTOUCHED].mkv) currently shows the hdr parameters of the first of the four sequential files (00687.m2ts), which would be the initial credits, namely: Primary colors: BT.2020 Transfer characteristics: PQ Matrix coefficients: BT.2020 non-constant MasteringDisplay_ColorPrimaries: Display P3 MasteringDisplay_Luminance: min: 0.0001 cd / m2, max: 1000 cd / m2 MaxCLL: 233 cd / m2 MaxFALL: 63 cd / m2 These instead are the metadata of the 4 m2ts tracks: Code:

So, after having exposed the problem, and having examined a specific case, the question is rather short and simple: 1) Which rule must be applied? (question valid for all bluray movies splitted into multiple m2ts files) 2) In the case of the movie Alita - Battle Angel, which HDR metadata should be used?
