There is an easier format, in another file, if your frame is large
enough to trigger the file-buffered storage.
The setting is Max_Image_Buffer_Memory (MI), default 128 megabytes.
Minimal value to have a file is 1 megabyte (MI1), and
height*width*20/1048576 must then be strictly greather than the value
(so height*width*20 >= 2*1048576 , or h*w >= 104857 for -MI1)

The format is 5 floats per pixel, with the end of the file containing
the height, width and size of pixel. The five floats are the five RGBFT
channel, in that order.
