MakeMKV Power Rangers Test

In this article, we will explore the test results of using MakeMKV to convert a movie into different formats. The specific movie being tested is the 2017 Power Rangers film.

One of the key challenges in testing MakeMKV is ensuring that the file plays smoothly and without interruption. To achieve this, it's necessary to set an alarm when the file reaches its ending credits. This allows us to verify whether the file has been converted correctly and whether any issues arise during playback.

Time Seeking Issues with DV Files

In our test results, we noticed that some DV files (P7 and P8) had problems with time seeking. These files could only be played from the beginning and did not allow for pause or resume functionality. This issue was also observed in MakeMKV's DV P8 test file, which displayed better compression artifacts compared to HDR10.

Compression Artifacts

When examining the DV FEL version of the Power Rangers film using Chromecast, we noticed that it displayed noticeable compression artifacts. These artifacts were similar to those seen in the P8 file. In contrast, when viewing the Dolby Vision FEL mkv file made using MakeMKV, we did not observe any compression artifacts.

Comparison between P8 and HDR10

In our tests, we found a significant difference between P8 and HDR10 files. However, the difference between P7 and P8 was less noticeable. This suggests that while P8 may offer improved compression artifact reduction, it is not as dramatic as the difference between P8 and HDR10.

Based on our test results, it appears that MakeMKV can effectively convert movies into different formats. However, some DV files may experience time seeking issues. Additionally, we observed noticeable compression artifacts in the DV FEL version of the Power Rangers film using Chromecast. Overall, our tests highlight the importance of proper setup and configuration when working with MakeMKV to ensure optimal results.
