I wonder that meaning of this code.
Pras = Point(filmX, filmHeight - filmY - 1.f, 0.f);

Do you mean the "filmHeight - filmY - 1.f" part ? It is there to flip the image along Y axis or it would be rendered upside down.

It is flipped using "filmHeight - filmY - 1.f" when inputting and then we need to flip it back using "y = height - y - 1" for the output?

Is it necessary to do so?

Yes, if you remove both, the file output will be still the same but the in-memory frame buffer will be flipped. So they are required to have the memory frame buffer and file output as old Lux had.
