RED uses an undocumented proprietary format called Redcode RAW, a lossy
variable bitrate wavelet codec something like JPEG2000. At this time,
only proprietary software from RED is available and only for Mac Intel
hardware. Reportedly, the layout of this format is still evolving.

I have access to a RED, but haven't touched it yet.
