ARRIRAW

ARRIRAW is updated to SDK 8.3.1. This version offers the following improvements:

Native 32-bit floating-point decoding (SDK 8.0.0).
- A 16-bit Integer decoding option, generated from the 32-bit floating-point decoding, is also available. Note that since there is no native 16-bit integer support in Flame Family products, clips decoded as 16-bit are seen as 12-bit in MediaHub.
GPU Decoding for Monochrome RAW clips (8.0.0).
ARRI Debayering Algorithms 7 (ADA-7)
- ADA-7 is a powerful algorithm that delivers cleaner images, minimizes aliasing on edges and reduces contouring artifacts. ADA-7 offers an improved Green/Blue screen portrayal.
Warning: ADA-7 HW is not supported for ALEXA 265 content.
Support for ALEXA Mini LF (SUP 7.3.0) 4.5K 1.89:1 ARRIRAW clips (SDK 8.1).
Support for ALEXA 265 RAW clips (SDK 8.3.1).

The ARRIRAW7 media format has been renamed ARRIRAW, and the ARRIRAW format used for pre-SDK 7 content has been renamed to ARRIRAW Legacy.
