Lossless codec nightmares

Cineform, Raylight, Sheer, Microcosm...I've tried them all including a bunch of Open Source projects like Lagarith. My deepes wish right now is that Adobe would bring me something like Apples ProRes but designed for the Adobe architecture. A lightweight 4:2:2 codec that could play HD of regular disks in RT and still hold up for some grading and chroma key work. A codec that is not surrounded by all the registration fuzz that Cineform has (come on! - serial, hardware key AND activation code).

Adobe. Make my world simpler. Now.
