Anyway to download 8 bit Cineform codec?

Nov 03, 2018 Nov 03, 2018

Hello,

The cameras I use are 8 bit and I'm looking for the 8 bit cineform codec to download. Cineform website lists 8 bit versions but I don't see them in media encoder. How do I get them? I would only be wanting the 8 bit versions for proxy files .

Thanks,

okay, so I just did a test. I made a cineform proxy file at 960x540 resolution set at quality 4. The file size was 350MB vs the built in preset of cineform proxy which was  3.2GB. Since it seems that my custom 960x540 Proxy file plays back fine I don't see any problem sticking with that.

Those files are tiny. I don't think you can reliably test a data rate measured in Mega bits per second with an export that appears to be less than a second.

Lol , you did the same mistake I tried to mention beforehand.

Yes, if you want to compress as inefficiently as possible, it's an option. Congrats.
