Three camera-native routes Sequency prepares differently

The format and color documentation for these routes lives at sequencyapp.com/help.

Sequency prepares camera-native conversions from the detected source rather than applying one generic media route.

ARRI review video
  decode   ARRI Image SDK
  target   Rec.709 / D65 / BT.1886
  output   playable video

ARRI scene-linear
  decode   ARRI Image SDK
  color    ACES 2065-1 → ACEScg
  output   OpenEXR sequence

BRAW scene-linear
  decode   Blackmagic RAW SDK
  color    ACES 2065-1 / AP0 handoff
  output   OpenEXR sequence
Enter fullscreen mode Exit fullscreen mode

These are prepared defaults, not locked presets. The route remains inspectable and can be changed before export.

What stays attached to the route

For camera-native sources, the app and Agent CLI prepare the relevant camera settings, frame size, color path, alpha behavior and audio choice. A CLI dry run returns the prepared operation as structured JSON before it writes output.

sequency-cli info --file "/path/to/source.braw" --json
sequency-cli convert \
  --input "/path/to/source.braw" \
  --output "/path/to/frames" \
  --container imageSequence \
  --format exr \
  --dry-run \
  --json
Enter fullscreen mode Exit fullscreen mode

The visual Mac app and CLI use the same conversion engine. The source determines which camera and color path is prepared; the selected delivery determines the output route.

The full camera-format, color and CLI reference is in the Sequency Help Center. The six-step agent workflow is at sequencyapp.com/agents.
