from .mxf to uncompressed .avi

[marcorocchini]

considering my source

https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/39871584/C0020.mxf

if I would like to transcode it in uncompressed yuy2 how is the command line?

I have try: ffmpeg -y -i c0020.mxf -vcodec rawvideo -pix_fmt yuv422p -an -vtag YUY2 output.avi


(with and without -vtag yuy2, but don't work) but my nle don' read the output.avi

maybe I have to set interlacing flags?

Most Windows NLE's use UYVY as their "uncompressed" 8bit YUV 422. It's essentially the same thing as YUY2, just different byte arrangement

ffmpeg -i c0020.mxf -vcodec rawvideo -pix_fmt uyvy422 -an uyvy.avi

[marcorocchini]

and in avisynt it have a correspondence with "convertTOyuy2()" --> "convertTOYUV[?]()"
or in avisynth does exist only the convertTOyuy2?

[poisondeathray]

Did it import correctly in your NLE ?

No avisynth doesn't have an equivalent . It's essentially the same thing (8bit YUV 422), just different way of organizing the data (byte ordering is different) . There is no data loss when you swap between them . It's just that certain programs "expect" the data to be organized in a certain way

-pix_fmt uyvy422 is interesting but why it don't figure in -pix_fmts list?

AHH no it's present in list, sorry

[marcorocchini]

Most Windows NLE's use UYVY as their "uncompressed" 8bit YUV 422. It's essentially the same thing as YUY2, just different byte arrangement

ffmpeg -i c0020.mxf -vcodec rawvideo -pix_fmt uyvy422 -an uyvy.avi

so can I do the same thing with the mjpeg codec?

No - mjpeg isn't uncompressed YUV . Internally it's organized differently

So did the UYVY import correctly ? (There can be other reasons why some editors don't accept "uncompressed AVI")

[marcorocchini]

yes: the uncompressed file works well.

The problem is in the file mjpg made with ffmpeg: ffmpeg -i c0020.mxf -vcodec mjpeg -pix_fmt yuvj422p -q:v 0 -an outMJPEG.avi

playback in incorrect.

Meanwile I have transcode the same source with virtualdub using LEAD mjpeg codec and it works well: the only difference in mediainfo seems to be the lead.avi is declarated "interlace" and the ffmpeg one is undefined.

but I think this is problem is irresolvible in ffmpeg

[poisondeathray]

I think you tried to figure it out already before ? ffmbc mjpeg imports, but ffmpeg mjpeg doesn't work ? But ffmbc mjpeg didn't say "interlace" for scan type ?

Try running the AVI(s) through gspot . Sometimes there are AVI container differences that might cause something to not import

[marcorocchini]

my nle don't import nothing in mjpeg, using ffmbc or ffmpeg.

import mjpeg files that are made with virtualdub, maybe I think is for the "interalced" but I don't know.

Only when I set the project settings of Blade/Speed Razor to "rgb24" it comes able to read mjpeg .avi file from ffmpeg/ffmbc: the only differences between ffmbc and ffmpeg is that ffmpeg include a "vprp" which makes it difficult the playback and timecode read by the internal mjpeg decoder of Speed Razor/Blade: so I have modify the ffmpeg.exe with an hex editor, in "my" version of ffmpeg.exe it write .avi with a "vpr2" and not "vprp": this allow speed razor/blade to playback correctly .avi mjpeg file and reading timecode.

But now my problem is another: if I set the project editing in 16bityuy2 or 16bituyvy the nle don't playback ffmpeg/ffmbc .avi files.

I've not modify ffmbc, simply my speed razor don't playback mjpeg .avi files from ffmbc: simply ffmbc don't write "vprp" in .avi files but the problem remains.
