Sorry if this is a stupid question:
Is it impossible to patch the codebook so the 
decoder outputs yuv420p data that libswscale 
would convert into the expected rgb data?

If not: Did you measure if there is a 
performance difference with your patch 
when encoding cinepak into png-in-mov?
(and how big the difference is when 
transcoding to mpeg4?)

Thank you, Carl Eugen
