[FFmpeg-user] Converting Rec.601 YV12 to Rec.709 for MPEG-2 encoding

[Francois Visagie]

Hi All,

 

What command line option/s do I need for converting Rec.601-recorded YV12 to
Rec.709 for MPEG-2 encoding? I've searched the documentation and the closest
I've come is the '-pix_fmts' pixel format option, but nothing about which
colourspace matrix to use. Besides, input is in YV12 already. Or does ffmpeg
somehow do the Rec.601 -> Rec.709 conversion automatically? Any help will be
greatly appreciated.

 

Thanks,

Francois
