I also tried some overkill commands(below) I found on the internet, and it is able to convert to h264 perfectly, but once I try to add scaling to that command it will also produce washed up colors like example above. Careers ffmpeg scale dither does pip automatically qualify you for lcwra. after this I need to scale it (jet 1920x1080) from hd to sd using a thing similar to this line. If below 130 on a scale of 1-255, then use light colored type on dark tile if. I have no idea how or why the filter messes up the colors. My attached input.avi is recognized by ffmpeg as 1920X10 88 instead of 1080, so to 'normalize' this input avi file is necessary to crop the source with a line of this kind: Code: -vf crop1920:1080:0:0. I tried googling for x hours, tried a lot of random attemps, and in the end I tracked it down to scale filter. Ideally I would want to convert the video to h264 and scale down. No matter what I do the colors are always washed up as a result.Ĭode I run for it ffmpeg -i input.mkv -vf scale=1028:-1 output.mkv
