Dear Mplayer's Developers
Could you upgrade chapter 11.8 of the documentation adding information about
all image types supported by the -mf operation? Currently, we can read at the
beginning: “MEncoder is capable of creating movies from one or more JPEG, PNG,
TGA, or other image files.“.
Unfortunately, to ensure my manager, that the MEncoder is the best choice for a
movies encoding, I need information about other supported formats explicitly
given in the documentation. For me, it is very important to present that
MEncoder supports the following formats:
- Digital Picture Exchange - DPX 8/10/12/16 bits (base format for the digital
cinema - see dpx.c),
- JPEG2000 (j2k),
- TIFF (tif).
I have verified support of the MEncoder for the DPX, and it works great with
all color depth variants DPX (DPX 8/10/12/16 bits). Thanks to the eq2 filter
and gamma correction it is also possible to encode from DPX with logarithmic
colorspace.
I have found a list of other possible formats, in the “demux_mf.c” source file:
type2format[] = {
{ "bmp", mmioFOURCC('b', 'm', 'p', ' ') },
{ "dpx", mmioFOURCC('d', 'p', 'x', ' ') },
{ "j2k", mmioFOURCC('M', 'J', '2', 'C') },
{ "jp2", mmioFOURCC('M', 'J', '2', 'C') },
{ "jpeg", mmioFOURCC('I', 'J', 'P', 'G') },
{ "jpg", mmioFOURCC('I', 'J', 'P', 'G') },
{ "jls", mmioFOURCC('I', 'J', 'P', 'G') },
{ "thm", mmioFOURCC('I', 'J', 'P', 'G') },
{ "db", mmioFOURCC('I', 'J', 'P', 'G') },
{ "pcx", mmioFOURCC('p', 'c', 'x', ' ') },
{ "png", mmioFOURCC('M', 'P', 'N', 'G') },
{ "ptx", mmioFOURCC('p', 't', 'x', ' ') },
{ "tga", mmioFOURCC('M', 'T', 'G', 'A') },
{ "tif", mmioFOURCC('t', 'i', 'f', 'f') },
{ "sgi", mmioFOURCC('S', 'G', 'I', '1') },
{ "sun", mmioFOURCC('s', 'u', 'n', ' ') },
{ "ras", mmioFOURCC('s', 'u', 'n', ' ') },
{ "ra", mmioFOURCC('s', 'u', 'n', ' ') },
{ "im1", mmioFOURCC('s', 'u', 'n', ' ') },
{ "im8", mmioFOURCC('s', 'u', 'n', ' ') },
{ "im24", mmioFOURCC('s', 'u', 'n', ' ') },
{ "sunras", mmioFOURCC('s', 'u', 'n', ' ') },
{ NULL, 0 }
};

Please, add information about supported formats to the documentation as soon as
possible.
Thank You Very Much for Developing MPlayer/MEncoder.
Best Regards,
Jakub
