BRAW SDK Question: is decode possible without processing?

PostFri Jan 20, 2023 2:28 pm

If I have a BlackmagicRawFrame object, is it possible to decode without processing color space and gamma and such, leaving all the values what they where originally from the sensor?

No, there is currently no sensor space output possible.

Are there params for IBlackmagicRawFrameProcessingAttributes that would make the processing basically identity functions or is there no way to get close to the sensor output through the SDK?

What do you need sensor space for and how do you plan to use it?
Something standard like Linear XYZ would give the best options for converting to other spaces, but again not sure what you're looking for or why so might not be best option depending.

I'm trying to use MCMC to approximate the CFA functions with samples of known spectrum and XYZ coordinates to be able to synthesize hopefully accurate predictions of how the sensor response to known spectrum will land in XYZ. I noticed the manual decode options parameters output a pointer to a frame buffer object, can I just copy that frame buffer?

It will always be processed sorry, we do not offer native sensor response outputs at this time.
