Wishlist: Generating DPX from non-rawcooked FFV1/MKV

[pjotrek-b]

Spawned from issue #118 :smile:

Would it be possible to actually output a generated DPX sequence for regular FFV1/MKV files that were not created with rawcooked?

Basically the equivalent of:

• ffmpeg -i INPUT.mkv %06d.dpx
• pix_fmt = pix_fmt of FFV1 source
• colors = linear (by default)
• framemd5-verify

This would reduce possible parametrization mistakes compared to ffmpeg (happens to everyone of use every now and then) - and might be easier/more welcoming for some users :grin:

Priority: Frozen until sponsorship-request :wink:

I guess the de facto standard of Blackmagic/DaVinci et al. could be used instead of %06d (i.e. %08d starting at 00086400 for a film and at 00090000 for a video workflow).

(I guess, it’s clear, but it’s the 01:00:00:00 timecode at 24 fps and 25 fps.)
