Question

Help encoding AVI interlaced YUV2 4:2:2 to h264 4:2:2 or other codec with 4:2:2 (keep getting 4:2:0)

I home video on VHS to an AVI file in YUV2 4:2:2 NTSC 720x480. I'd like to encode to another codec that is more efficienct for watching across my computers and home network.

 

I would like to keep 4:2:2 chroma sampling.  I tried H.264 and MPEG2 but my output files always seem to be 4:2:0 (using mediainfo to verify).

 

Please help - looking for tips. Ok using another codec if needed to produce quality results as long as it can be viewed over many devices.

Hi CharlieMA,

 

For 4:2:2 chroma subsampling, you may try exporting in QuickTime Format & Apple ProRes 422 preset.

Hope it helps. Let us know if you have any questions.

 

Thanks,

Sumeet
