New image handling in 2.13.61 and above

[carl]

Hi all,

I have switched DCP-o-matic 2.13.61 to use FFmpeg for still-image handling (rather than using ImageMagick). By "still-image" I mean input from a
group of TIFF/EXR/whatever files rather than a MP4/ProRes/etc.

I'm hopeful this will fix a number of problems; apart from anything else it should preserve resolution in files with more than 8 bits per pixel.

I would be very grateful if anybody could test it: particularly those who have had gamma/other troubles with still-image files.

Do let us know how you get on.

Best,
Carl

What kind of material is needed and what kind of process? Maybe I can try it. My English is not very good.

It seems this change is not without problems yet.
