So what's 4:2:1, if 4:2:2 and 4:2:0 are on either side of it? And shouldn't 4:4:4 (ie no subsampling) be 4:4:2 ? They haven't thought this through, have they?
@@ChristopherDobey Ah ok, is just I have an old DVD footage that I need to re-edit and I read somewhere on forums that it'd be a better practice to upscale the color space for a proper color correction and upscale to HD in the end. Not sure if that will really help, so I was wondering. thanks!
converting your Rec.601 DVD footage to Rec.709 may be beneficial considering most online services will be looking for the Rec.709 tag. As far as 4:2:0 to 4:4:4, this would simply be a waste of data since no new information is created during the process.
That doesn't seem like a downside I have a question, I have a HDR display I would like to record HDR gameplay using re:live. But the videos come out with the colors distortedor washed out, Is there something I need to do
Dunno but at a guess, try turning HDR off. Second guess would be try dicking about in the settings. Particularly in the codec you use. Third guess therefore, try other codecs!
I won't comment at a code line level as I am not a programmer. Chroma Subsampling is implemented to greatly reduce bandwidth during playback and broadcasting and red storage cost through smaller file sizes.
