Playing GoPro CineForm MOV Files in VLC. Normally, VLC is a reliable, free app to play a huge number of video formats. It has long been my go-to video player. But VLC won’t play videos encoded in the GoPro CineForm format because the format is proprietary.

The GoPro® CineForm video codec SDK. View on GitHub CineForm Introduction. GoPro CineForm® is a 12-bit, full-frame wavelet compression video codec. It is designed for speed and quality, at the expense of a very high compression size. Image compression is a balance of size, speed and quality, and you can only choose two.

Cineform is a wavelet codec optimized for high visual fidelity and fast CPU performace.

VC-5 is a separate codec that uses some components from Cineform but the two codecs are not backwards compatible (see https://medium.com/@kierank_/reverse-engineering-the-gopro-cineform-codec-7411312bfe1c)

Cineform covers a wide range of use-cases.Currently the FFmpeg implementation supports YUV 4:2:2 10-bit, RGB 10/12-bit, RGBA 10/12-bit.

The FFmpeg decoder is quite slow - here are things that need to be done to make it fast:

Add SIMD transform with different versions for clip and shift (see below)
Merge prescale shift into transform (where necessary)
Merge decompanding with VLC Tables or use a LUT
Make transform happen inplace

Other TODOs:

Bayer files
Transform-type=2 files - seem to have more subbands and are different to normal (Cineform RAW and others)

← Back to VLC Features
This is a new page that lists the audio/video codecs that VLC can or cannot read. It is still under development, don't hesitate to add a some FourCC and infos.

It should now be a bit more complete than the official features page on VideoLAN website.
