Codec implementation is based on: https://github.com/gopro/cineform-sdk

Currently supported encoder features:

• encoding to yuv422 format from yuyv or v210
• encoding to rgb format from rgb24, r210, or rgba64
• encoding to rgba format from rgba32 or rgba64
• encoding to bayer format

To encode bayer you must select the correct mosaic pattern (e.g. RGGB), otherwise cineform decoder will display incorrect image.

Currently supported decoder features:

• decoding yuv422 format to yuyv, v210, rgb24, rgba32, rgba64
• decoding rgb, rgba, and bayer formats to rgb24, rgba32, r210, rgba64
• decoding bayer format as 16-bit grayscale

Actual format is selectable in Video->Decode format, any conversion if needed is provided by cineform-sdk.
To activate bayer mode: select Video->Decode format->any grayscale format (Y8 / I8 / Y16)

When opening a rgb/rgba file that was produced from 8-bit source, the format in file properties is indicated as 8/12-bit
