Support for more input via FFMPEG

[up4]

This is not a bug. Just a feature request that I will try to implement myself. In the next couple of weeks, I will write a command line utility that will generate both picture and sound MXF from any input type the statically linked FFMPEG library supports while integrating your color transforms and checks, without the need for TIFF of J2K intermediaries. So it is a new command line util that will use as much as possible from your code and coding style. I will do it in my own fork and you can merge it in your repository and maybe integrate it more tightly in the rest of your project (the GUI, for instance).

I actually implemented this some time ago, but never released it due to concerns with statically linking FFmpeg. Then there was the whole FFMpeg/libav thing. Another issue was that images seemed to be converted to 8-bit during the FFmpeg process resulting in some quality artifacts at times.

Hello! Thanks for your reply. I think all those things are fixed now. Do you want me to look at your work first ? I can start from scratch I have some experience with working with statically-linked FFMPEG. The only thing is that I have access to darwin and linux machines only. No windows. But FFMPEG on windows does work (see Zeranoe's site).
