[FFmpeg-user] ffmpeg MP4/x264 output colours change when input source is different resolution (bug?)

[Dan]

> zscale=...,format=yuv420p

Ohhhh.... okay. I tried that before (except using two -vf commands), because I
suspected you might've meant that.

Just tried it again, still no luck. Let me know if I need to tweak anything:

ffmpeg.exe -f lavfi -i color=0x19be0f:s=400x578 -crf 0 -vcodec libx264 -vf zscale=w=-1:h=-1,format=yuv420p -t 5 -y "578.mp4"

I'm using Media Player Classic to test the colours, which breaks the pic using the 578 pixel
height. Chrome actually works with both the 576 and 578 pixel height, but as soon as I
change the height to 984, then both Media Player Classic AND Chrome show it broken.

Datascope shows the strange and seemingly unrelated 78,4C,44 values for all three sizes,
but it does that even without using zscale at all.
