FFmbc

[fabrice]

Hi Steipal
Is there a plan to add ffmbc to extend the system to more professional formats ?
Best regards

Ffmbc was actually used in FFAStrans up to 0.4.1 but was replaced by ffmpeg for various reasons. What are the formats you require which only ffmbc supports?

I was thinking about ProRes 4444, MXF mixing and manipulation.
I don't know if FFmpeg or FFmbc can flag correctly Dolby E streams inside MXF files ?
Any idea ?

You can try and set up a "Custom FFmpeg"-encoder with these settings:

Vcodec:prores_ks
Options:-profile:v 4
Extension:mov

This should create a ProRes 4444 file. I'm not sure about the Dolby E stuff though. If you can find a working example of a ffmbc/ffmpeg command that does what you need, then we should be able to implement it into FFAStrans.
