New description:

 When the available pixel formats are listed with
 ffmpeg -pix_fmts
 then "gray16" is not found in the list (however "gray16le" and "gray16be"
 are listed).

 On the other hand, if I use "format=gray16" in the filter chain or
 "-pixel_format gray16" as a command line option, then I get no error
 message and no warning.

 That doesn't seem to be right. If "gray16" is an alias for either
 "gray16le" or "gray16be", then it should also be listed with ffmpeg
 -pix_fmts

 P.S. And it would be helpful to see for which pixel format the alias is,
 "le" or "be".
