I asked around here, the feeling is that VirtualDub will decode
H.264 to uncompressed AVIs in 422 or to BMPs as 444.

My only convern is that some virtual dub features may be dependent
on running on windows where it may use Windows DLLs for some of its
features (AVIs look like a good candidate for this). I honestly
don't know.

If you want to try to port some of virtual dub to do this
email me privately, I may be able to help more.
