Correct. I meant to type "mB" not "gB"!!

While abstractly I understand the difference between codecs and
containers/formats, everyone always talks as if its easy for end users
like me to choose the underlying codec of their container formats. If
there were some way for me to flip a switch on UYVY versus YUYV
ordering, or mjpeg versus yuv2, then I would *love* to know about it.
Right now I know of no way to control that in cinelerra or any other
software.
