10 bit?

friends,
I have made some 10 bit raw yuv avi files.
These do not play in VLC.
so basically I need to know _ is that because VLC will not play 10 bit uncompressed video
and I * may* have made good files but need a player[ if not VLC -what? ]
or
VLC absolutely will play a file.avi that is uncompressed YUV 10 bit and the fact that it will not play my files points to -- i have made bad files.
so
does VLC play 10 bit avi , uncompressed?
thanks
j

No. At any rate, I don't even know any video rendering API that supports more than 8-bit depth colour components.
I mean, even if someone would care to implement 10-bits in VLC or some other player, it would have to be downsampled to 8-bits before display.

ok - Is it possible to play a 10 bit avi in VLC or something else that is downsampled and one only 'sees' 8 bit.
that would be OK . i would like to see something -- and in sync.
( off vlcForum ...but i have tried ffplay -- no luck --- mostly I wish to know if my FILES are good)
thanks brother

This has not been implemented in VLC as yet. I don't know other players well.

It has been implemented yesterday in VLC trunk nightly builds.

That's a bit simplistic view. It's supported if the system supports it in OpenGL, and if the codec outputs it from FFmpeg.

Well, h264 are usually the ones in 10bits... And swscale should fire up with other video outputs.

I know that it isn't yet complete but the point is that now VLC is starting to support 10-bit.
