Hi, today i'm to experiment about some timelapse shooting, and i would to use cineform.
i do a simple batch to convert a small sequence of .rw2 photos to a cineform avi.
my batch is :
DPX2CF.exe d:\test\*.rw2 d:\test\movie.avi -q4+ -f24 -w1920 -h1080 -z

if i do without size, all work fine, if i add flag of -z don't zoom out my sequence to fit Full Hd size, if i not use -Z the same thing... my movie is right size (1920 x 1080) but it's a left upper corner of original shooting sequence.

where is my error?

RAW data is not scaled, it is store directly as CineForm. You can crop, but scaling means converting to YUV or RGB first and DPX2CF doesn't (yet) have a demosaic filter. You can run the result through HDlink to scale to YUV 1080p if needed.
