I suspect you are refering to ticket #1080, while Peter's question - 
if I understood him correctly - was more "Does FFmpeg always force a 
colour space or does it choose them at random?" while it actually 
tries hard not to loose any information from the input file when 
encoding (from a colour space perspective).

Or do you mean another problem?
