Terje: just some minor feedback. Related to my topic and for simpler expressions search, I would suggest
standardizing where possible, i.e "10-bit" everywhere an no "10bit" or "10 bit". Should this possibly also affect the package name "Cinelerra10bit" accordingl
I have locally corrected the manual to use 10-bit everywhere it makes sense, except for when the meaning is actually talking about 10 bits. I do not think I will be able to get gg to change the name Cinelerra10bit accordingly, but will try.
Also, you are right! the article you quoted at: https://video.stackexchange.com/questions/13164/encoding-422-in-10-bit-with-... which has a edited date of November 2018 does state that now you do not have to do anything special in x264 to use 8 or 10 bit. If you "cd" to the cinelerra /thirdparty/x264-snapshot-20180118-2245 directory and keyin ./x264 --h you clearly see at the top "Output bit depth: 8/10". Yeah! so I removed the wording in the manual about compiling x264 with 10-bit option. I will have to look at the following yet/too:
Shouldn't ffmpeg according to the reference below, list 'yuv422p10le' among the supported pixel formats on my system?
Thanks for your welcome input, gg/Phyllis
