[Libav-user] How can i extract Y plane from any frame in video

[Amir Rouhi-Rmit]

Thanks for your nice reply.
in Pixel formats (-pix_fmt) we have a wide variety of output formats. I have
three question and i would be pleased if you help me the answers:

1- Would you let me know whats the difference between yuvj420p  and yuv420p?
both has same nb-channels and depth
2- whats the mean of is_alpha parameter and nb_channels in different
-pix_fmt?
3- if i want to quantise the result how can i reduce the depth from 8 to 3
or 4?

Regards
