Nope, uncompressed makes no sense to me at all.
Since Hybrid supports a bunch of lossless compression options:
(H.264 lossless, H.265 lossess, AV1 lossless, FFV1 (only supports YUV420 iirc), UT Video, FFvHuff)
Not planning to add image sequence output, since I don't see any value in it.

Don't those support any lossless compression formats?
I might be willing to support another lossless format if ffmpeg supports it or a free standalone command line encoder exists, but I do not see the use in uncompressed content.

Image sequences and raw video simply makes not sense nowadays.
I didn't like it 20 years ago, but back then I understood why NLE tools would prefer it, but forcing users to use image sequences disqualifies tools in my book.

If video import and export would usually take minutes per frame Hybrid would probably just support image sequences.

Hybrid does not support DVD output since:
a. I have no clue how to properly calculate the overheads for vob files
b. I don't know any really good open source MPEG-2 encoder (only free cross-platform MPEG-2 encoder I'm aware of is the one in FFmpeg, I had hope for x262, but that one turned into a dead project)
c. I haven't created DVDs since before I started writing Hybrid.
d. my knowledge about DVD structures (especially menu structures) is really minimal

Also calling something like:

ffmpeg -i  "path to video" -f image2 -vcodec png "E:\Output\%06d.png"

seems to be easy enough that folks can do it themselves.

No, you can't replace the default output with some random call.

Hybrid does have options which allow to call custom calls after a job or a queue finished, but those would probably require you to know the output name beforehand.
So if you knew each of your jobs would create 'E:\output.avi' you could:
Set "Jobs->Misc->On job finished" to "call external" and set "Jobs->Misc->On job finished->call external->at job finished external call" to

"c:\Program Files\Hybrid\64bit\ffmpeg.exe" -i  "E:\output.avi" -f image2 -vcodec png "E:\Output\output_%06d.png"

alternatively you could call a batch file or a another program to do whatever you want.
