Open GoogleCodeExporter opened 9 years ago

GoogleCodeExporter commented 9 years ago 
What steps will reproduce the problem?
1. DPX frame with full RGB values to Prores HQ 422 or 444 encode with ffmbc 
command
2.
3.

What is the expected output? What do you see instead?
I wouldnt expect any colour shift from RGB to YUV or from DPX RGB to Prores RGB

What version of the product are you using? On what operating system?
FFmbc 0.7rc7 for Windows (64-bit) 5-Jul-2012
Windows 7 64bit

This actually seems to be effecting a conversion from DPX to rawvideo 422 QT as 
well

I will need the original dpx to reproduce

Here you go Baptiste.  If you convert this frame to a QT and then compare the 
colour you'll see the output gets slighter warmer.  Have tried adding -vf 
colormatrix=bt709:bt709 with no change.

Hummm, djv and imagemagick cannot convert this dpx, their output is a black 
frame.
What are you using to view and create the dpx ?

That was from a Quantel Pablo, this one is from SGO Mistika, be aware the frame 
is very dark

Having now also done a Uncompressed YUV422 QT to Prores I also get the same 
shift.  I think this is the same as this issue: 
http://web.archiveorange.com/archive/v/DUtyPyCWLv29zJqkZkPl
Maybe as we're in a colour critical environment we pick up on this when others 
dont care, however this means ffmpeg can not be used for true 1:1 color 
critical work.  A snapshot of our scope shows a change in the RGB parade (the 
last three).  The Red and Blue channel is different, unfortunately i cant 
upload these as this forum says the storage quota for this thread is exceeded.  
Thanks

Hey guys, I can confirm that we at Weta are experiencing the same issue. I have 
the latest ffmpeg and ffmbc versions compiled and i've ran a few tests encoding 
a dpx sequence into a prores quicktime. We're trying to find a replacement for 
our current in-house solution that runs only on mac os x and uses native 
quicktime libraries (we are finding the code maintenance to be very difficult, 
which is why we are wanting to find an alternative) and i can generate an 
awesome looking prores movie, but as OP posted, it is more yellow than the 
source. There is a definite color shift. The quality of the video and encoding 
is better (prores HQ, 48fps, 2k res, yuv44410p, 170Mbit data rate) and the 
codec we use ATM (apple intermediate), but the color is off. 

I'd be happy to provide some dpx's and resulting sequences generated with our 
in house solution vs. ffmpeg for comparison if this could help solve the 
problem...

thanks
jakub

Humm, the other frame looks plain black to me, I cannot distinguish anything.
I'll close this issue unless a good dpx file is supplied that clearly 
illustrates the problem,
I just cannot fix anything without a good test case

I have noticed some of the same symptoms. If the limit of attachments hadn't 
been full I'd attached an archive with two dpx'es, two quicktimes, and two 
screenshots from video scopes in FCP. I know it's not the most accurate, but 
our hardware video scope confirms the shift.

I'll try emailing you the archive :)

Commands used to produce quicktimes:

ffmbc -i calibrate.%04d.dpx -r 25 -vcodec prores -profile std -vf 
colormatrix=bt601:bt709 -y dpx_to_prores_709_filtering.mov

ffmbc -i calibrate.%04d.dpx -r 25 -vcodec prores -profile std -y 
dpx_to_prores_no_filtering.mov

I've uploaded a kodak marcie(rec709) dpx and its converted to prores 422 
output, and a split screen as a tiff Baptiste. I've shared the files with you 
via your gmail account.
Hopefully this will clearly show you the issue.  Its clear that the guys at 
Weta have the same problem and they know what they're doing!
Best regards

The issue still hasn't be fixed as of FFmbc-0.7-rc8 or FFmpeg 2.1.1

disappointing that this has never been fixed, would be great to use a command 
line render farm on windows to do these! oh well

Has anyone tried the colormatrix filter? IIRC there is a 601 default baked into 
the code somewhere.

As far as I can see, only Rec.709 (sRGB primaries), FCC, Rec.601 (ITU-R 
BT.470-2/SMPTE 170M), and SMPTE 240M are supported, but it would appear they 
should work for the src / dst conversions.

"-vf colormatrix=src:dst" where src / dst are one of:
‘bt709’
‘bt601’
‘smpte240m’
‘fcc’

Example:

"-vf colormatrix=bt601:bt709"

If someone could test this and report back, that would be excellent.

Is there any way someone following this thread can do a test with the Bella 
Nuit (http://www.belle-nuit.com/test-chart) test pattern and sample the luma 
across the two 709 / 601 sets?

I have a strong suspicion that RGB to YCbCr conversion is using the 601 
matrices. This would account for the filter effects being skipped perhaps.

Original comment by troy.sob...@gmail.com on 5 Feb 2014 at 4:31

GoogleCodeExporter commented 9 years ago 
I've identified a number of issues causing this shift (all in libswscale).
First of all, the bt601 coefficients are hard coded in swscale.c (which does 
rgb->yuv). Even when changing those, the luma will still be wrong if mmx is 
enabled (because mmx also assumes bt601 for any yuv material).
swscale.c.rc8patch will change the defult coefficients to bt709 and disable mmx 
for the scaler. 

When converting back from yuv->rgb, bt601 coefficients will also be used.
swscale.h.rc8patch changes yuv->rgb coefficients to bt709.

However, when converting from yuv444 to rgb, rc8 will not give you full color 
resolution.
utils.c.rc8patch fixes this with some lines borrowed from latest ffmpeg.

NB! Even though utils.c.rc8patch seems to do the trick in this case, I might 
have broken something else. If you only need rgb->yuv and not the other way, 
you only need swscale.c.rc8patch

Thanks for this Bengt, unfortunately I've been unable to compile the RC8 with 
these patches for a Win 7 64 machine which is very frustrating (the main source 
of info online is for 32bit).  Does anyone know how to do this and can send me 
the outputted ffmbc.exe for testing Bengt's fix?
Thanks all

Unless ofcourse it is possible to disable MMX in the command line encode in 
RC8?  in which case what would be the correct command for RGB DPX rec709 to 
Prores 422 HQ?

I like the utils.c patch I will apply it.
Other patches seem intrusive to me, if it could be conditional if would be 
better.

I would think that full range RGB should only be dumped if the source is full 
range (yuvj)?

Does it dump full range if the source is yuvj range?
