imcopy Options
 
 
 

The following options may be used with imcopy.

Option Function Default
-f Sets output file format. Same as source image
-c Sets output channel format (BW, RGB, or RGBA). Same as source image
-m Sets output image compression (default, none, rle, lzw). Same as source image
-o Sets (x,y) source origin in infile. 0,0
-s Sets source width and height in infile. Whole file
-d Sets destination image width and height. Same as source image
-t Sets the destination aspect ratio. Accepts floating point values; i.e. 4:3 as 1.33, 16:9 as 1.77, etc. Same as source image
-l Maps input pixels through LUTs in the inlut file. Specify the full path to the LUT file. No mapping
-w Maps output pixels through LUTs in the outlut file. Specify the full path to the LUT. No mapping
-v Specifies verbose reporting. Non-verbose
-i Sets bits per pixel (bit depth) in the internal buffer (8 or 12). 8
-e Sets bits per pixel in the output image (8, 10, 12 16). 8
-u Stores 12-bit images in unpacked mode. By default, 12-bit images are stored using 12 bits of data. In unpacked mode, they are stored in 16 bits of data, the OpenGl® standard. Packed
-b Sets R,G,B, or a background colour between 0.0 and 1.0. 0.0, 0.0, 0.0, 0.0
-k Sets cropping type (crop, fit, fitall, or fitboth):

- crop centres and crops the image.

- fit scales the longest edge to fit the frame size.

- fitall scales the shortest edge to fit the frame size and crops the longest edge.

- fitboth scales both X and Y to fit the new frame size and distorts the image.

Use the -b option to specify the colour of the cropped part of the image (default is black).
crop
-q Sets resize quality: coarse, medium, quality, bicubic. quality
-D Sets the scan mode for the media: F1, F2, or P. None
-F Sets clip frame code mode: 24, 25, 30, 30DF, 50, 60, 60DF. 30
-j Sets JPEG compression factor (0-100). 75
-a Combines alpha file: -a <file to go in alpha channel>. None
-A Specifies the audio files to add to the media. You can add more than one audio file by separating the audio file names with commas. None
-x “invert” or “noinvert”, extracts alpha channel to <filename>_alpha. None
-M Creates a matte container. You must use -x in conjunction with this command to create a matte. None
-n Sets which physical device the media was captured from. For example, you can specify a tape name. Imported
-p Pans image by x and y. 0, 0
-P Soft imports the media. None
-T Sets the start timecode of the media. 00:00:00:00
-O Specifies an offset in the sequence of exported images. Same as start index
-g Generates proxies (first, all, or none):

- first generates proxies for the first frame of the clip only.

- all generates proxies for each frame.

None
