ljpeg 36bits from #2966 and having the actual bits_per_raw_sample value What this situation underlines is that bits_per_raw_sample is unreliable. Compare ljpeg RGB with more than 8 bits and pnmdec: - ljpeg sets bits_per_raw_sample to 12 (because that's what the sample dynamics is), colorspace is 16bits - pnmdec set bits_per_raw_sample to 12, but scale samples to 16bits to match colorspace, hereby making bits_per_raw_sample less useful (samples have actually 16 bits of dynamics) We have 2 cases resulting in the same info but needing different processing. So, at this point you can't know if bits_per_raw_sample!=color space bitdepth means the values have the right dynamics indicated by bits_per_raw_sample, if they have been rescaled to get to the colorspace bitdepth, and so on. A potential "fix" would be to remove bits_per_raw_sample setting from pnmdec.c But I expect some other decoders to be potentially wrong/doing yet another thing at this point, so bits_per_raw_sample is not completely reliable. My suggestion in "[PATCH 2/5] pnmenc: use bits_per_raw_sample" was "if bits_per_raw_sample is correct". This looks to uncertain to me, so that patch should be reverted. -- Christophe _______________________________________________ ffmpeg-devel mailing list ffmpeg-devel@ffmpeg.org http://ffmpeg.org/mailman/listinfo/ffmpeg-devel
