[Libav-user] Writing 16bit greyscale videos

Hi,

I have a small class that creates an h264 video from a set of input images. I have some problems trying to write 16 bit input images: Conversion to yuv420p format loses 8 bit of precision, and apparently x264 does not support encoding 16 bit greyscale data.
Do you know of a codec that supports encoding a video using AV_PIX_FMT_GRAY16BE pixel format (or anything similar)?
