Cinavia - how to deal with it??

Chris197800 · 06-05-2015, 21:06

I keep having issues with Cinavia blocking the audio on movie files that I watch through my Samsung smart Blu-Ray player.
Anyone know a simplistic way of either removing Cinavia from the movie video files or from the Blu-Ray player itself? Which ever is easiest.

easiest thing would be to use legal source.

Aside from that, there are some custom firmware which ignore cinavia but it depends on which model player you have and if you want to pay for firmware.

You could try a cheap Chinese made media player rather than the blu-ray player.

There isn't a simplistic way of removing it without butchering the audio track. There IS a solution that exists that supposedly works, but the people behind it want a stupid amount of money for it.

You ideally need an old bluray player that doesn't have the cinavia detection built in.

Avoid cinavia files. I've never come across one yet.

Depending on whether the Blu-ray player and your audio system supports DTS-HD.

Exclude/remove the ac3 audio track and retain DTS-HD.

If no DTS HD support convert DTS-HD to ac3 and remux using something like TSmuxer-GUI.

OR

Buy a cheap media player (from about £20.00). You may have to change the file extension from M2TS/MTS to TS for some media players. Note there is likely to be a small amount of motion artefacts using a media player as very few will play back 24 fps content at the correct frame rate.

Apparently most blu-ray players since 2012 detect Cinavia.

I don't mind paying out for a programme that can easily remove cinavia from BRRIP files provided it won't harm the quality of the playback in any way. I now own 2 Samsung smart blu-ray players which I rate and they play all file types and upscale the quality so I would like to enable the files for these players.

I know someone said just use files without cinavia but is there a way of knowing it's there prior to downloading?

I said use legal sources like sky go movies or netflix.

If you want to download illegal rips then get an android based kodi streamer
