Testing OFX bit depths

PostThu Apr 25, 2024 12:04 pm

Hello All,

I am working on an OFX plugin and want to test different bit depths. I am using fusion to do so but I am still getting float 32 on the input no matter what I set the depth converter to. The MediaOut window also keeps showing float32. How is this done correctly? I am using 18.6 on OSX.

Thanks,
Markus

My guess is that all image processing is done that way and we can't change it.

Internal processing in Resolve, and probably Fusion as well, uses 32 bit float.

MediaIn and MediaOut is always 32 float for sake of preservation of the data, but you can change depths freely at any point within Fusion via Change Depth node. The viewer info top right should reflect this.
