Sorry, I don't understand what you're asking.</blockquote><div><br></div><div>yeah, this is info I was asking about - because it seems to me Cingg's imagelist format might be not very universal even in better form with file pathes. </div><div><br></div><div>I think half-done toc file from image2 muxer kinda normal - this is another corner cut by cingg.

May be documentation need some additional sentence sayng that you need to use 'ffmpeg first' if one uses ffmpeg's tiff/png image presets, so native demuxer will not choke over incomplete toc file? </div><div><br></div><div><br></div><blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="margin:0 0 0 .8ex;border-left:1px #ccc solid;padding-left:1ex">
I tried to do a dpx render; it came with all the images and a TOC file<br>
that doesn't have the links to the images. Then I created a second TOC<br>
file using imagelist.sh. A TOC came up with the links to the dpx<br>
images. This doesn't work when imported into CinGG; it's obvious<br>
because imagelist.sh uses only jpeg images and not dpx.<br>
So I took the first TOC and pasted in the links from the second TOC.<br>
This TOC+ works in CinGG and Natron; it doesn't work in Kdenlive and<br>
OpenShot (but I don't know if these programs support DPX).</blockquote><div><br></div><div>can you attach both toc files so i can experiment on them? (hopefully just some sed + redirection will be enough - but i do not know those tools from my memory - so i'll search online for manuals / examples) </div><div><br></div><div><br></div><blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="margin:0 0 0 .8ex;border-left:1px #ccc solid;padding-left:1ex">

I redid these steps using PNG instead of DPX and the TOC+ works in<br>
CinGG; Natron; OpenShot but does not work in Kdenlive.<br>
