What is Cineform RAW?

CineForm RAW is an intermediate codec used in film and television workflows.
It is used mainly in Silicon Imaging workflows: SI-2K camera records direct to disk in CineForm RAW format.

The footage is found inside QuickTime .mov or AVI containers. SI-2K cameras record file with CFHD codec fourcc at 2048x1152 pixels.

In 2011, CineForm was acquired by GoPro, a move aimed at leveraging the wavelet encoding technology in the fields of multi-view video (stereo and 360 degrees) where GoPro was heavily investing.
The codec has since seen little real-world use, and has been open sourced in 2017.
