raw2yuv (1)

NAME

       raw2yuv - Convert a Raw DV stream to Raw YUV.

SYNOPSIS

       raw2yuv [ options ]

DESCRIPTION

       raw2yuv  converts  a  Raw  DV  stream received on stdin into the simple
       uncompressed planar 4:2:0 Y'CbCr format, as used by the MJPEG Tools.

OPTIONS

       -a audio-out-file
              Output to an audio file in parallel. Type is based on the exten-
              sion and currently only wav and mp2 are provided. If you wish to
              have more control over the mp2 file generated, export to  a  wav
              first and then convert the wav as required.

       -i type
              Deinterlacing type - 0 is none, 1 provides very poor deinterlac-
              ing (default: 0).  2 results in no interlacing, but a 4:1:1 sub-
              sampled  stream  (native  NTSC  DV)  which  can  be processed by
              y4mscaler.  More types will be supported in the future.

EXAMPLES

       This slightly overlaps with the smil2yuv(1) tool.  The  distinction  is
       that  raw  DV  is  expected  on  stdin,  so  it comes a useful tool for
       transcoding raw DV producing tools, but without the necessity  to  cap-
       ture to a file first.

       NB: This really is not intended as an option for use with live raw pro-
       ducers (such as dvconnect or xwd2raw) unless:

       1. You have a very fast machine (and I mean very fast... a my p4 2gighz
       can't  do  much  with  this without dropping a lot of frames in the yuv
       output);
       2. You don't care about dropping frames :-).

       What will  work  are  non-real  time  raw  sources  like  ppm2raw(1)and
       image2raw(1).
