I agree. If an amateur weekend programmer like myself can write it, a pro could do it in their sleep!

Now, I am loathe to get into a "this codec is better than that codec" discussion, but Jamaika got me looking at JPEG XS. It sounds really cool, however...I don't see any publicly available implementation or SDK for it. Looks like it has to be licensed, which is perfectly fair and reasonable. Unfortunately that does me no good. I work on GoPro footage (which got me into Cineform to begin with) and now I use Cineform for everything else. But it's all personal stuff. And I like Cineform over DNXHD and Prores because I get significantly smaller file sizes at similar quality settings. That's the long and short of it for me.
