My color depth is set to 16 due to a crappy screen.
I'm also wondering about the colors of the film, it's seem to only use 8-bit colors or some indexed colors (wich is natural on the linux machine) but it looks as just as bad on my windows machine that are running 32-bit colors. (it does not do this with images or webcam input)
Is there a reason why GEM reduces the color depth? Is there an encoding that GEM handles better than others?
Gem only supports 2 colorspaces: 32bit and 8bit (this is for historic reasons; i would just drop the 8bit colospace).
since you have setup your system to have a colourdepth of 16bit, naturally it cannot server 32bit so it falls back to 24bit.
Gem cannot give you more than you ask for ;-)
