Comment (by rmk):

 Replying to [comment:4 Cigaes]:
 > “provided they are out there in the wild and not from a crazy source” is
 for reading non-standard files. This is indeed ffmpeg's policy. And ffmpeg
 can read your file.

 > For writing, that would be something like “provided there is a genuine
 need for it”.

 That's of course a grey area but as I do not have a strong case myself
 other than "why is it not possible like with other camera files", I think
 that position is generally a good thing.

 and “twos” that look like uncompressed PCM.

 That's interesting.You mean there would actually be potential for
 confusion between a jpeg2000 video sample description and that of raw
 audio? That would be messy indeed. Thanks for the info.
