Vooya is a player for raw (uncompressed and containerless) YUV and RGB video data, most commonly used in scientific environments, and has a variety of features which makes working with raw data easier:
- Detects format and color space by file name (currently YUV and RGB are supported), 4:0:0, 4:2:0, 4:2:2, 4:4:4, planar, interleaved and arbitrary bit depths up to 16bit fixed point
- Remembers file formats
- Guesses format from file name
- Drop / copy single frames (png, bmp, jpg)
- Drawing annotations
- Magnifier, pixel-exact view
- Advanced Deinterlacing
- Single color channel view
- Difference mode, PSNR and MSE measurements
- Displays HEVC Coding Unit indices and partition index
- Two players can be synchronized
- Can read Kakadu '.vix' files
- Can read YUVPlayer Deluxe header files
- Tools to reverse yuv files, extract single frames or sub-sequences
- Mac OSX, Linux and Windows
- Completely free
- see the changelog for details
Vooya is intended to be a full-feature toolkit for the happy video researcher and was inspired mainly by PYUV Raw Sequence Player, YUV Player Deluxe, Avarex player, GLYUVPlay and so forth.

It would be nice to have support for *.y files without having to change them to *.bw.

Hi, How about converting files to y4m?
vooya is not about conversion, but about display.
support for y4m is on the list.

Application comes up and tells me "No Dolby Support", "This software is not intended to work on Dolby-IT support systems" What does that mean?
That's right, Dolby has no access due to its IT policy; next version fixes spourious false alarms.

I can't display YUV 10bit v210 format successfully. Does Vooya support v210 format?
