Read video coded with FFV1

Hello, I'm using Matlab 2015a to read a video I have encoded with FFV1 codec. Unfortunately, the standard way using videoreader does not work since Matlab tells I have no the FFV1 codec installed. I found an interesting function mmread with which I was able to read a video 512x424. Now I have changed the dimensions to 1440x810 and the function does not return anymore the frames. Has anyone experience of reading FFV1 videos with Matlab? Thanks, Alex

I am using Matlab 2018b and I also cant open avi-Files with the codec FFV1. When will there be support for this format?

You can download the 'Basic' K-lite codec pack from here: https://codecguide.com/download_kl.htm
This includes the necessary codecs. After installation, reading with VideoReader should "just work".
