#5259 closed patch (fixed)

YUYV to YUV420P conversion only uses top field

Description

In NuppelVideoRecorder?.cpp, the YUYV to YUV420P conversion is described as following:

Treat lines in batches of two, first use color information, then don't

For interlaced content, this has the effect of ignoring one field of chroma information. When played back, the chroma sometimes looks like it is delayed behind the luma.

Even for progressive content, this isn't a particularly good resampling method.

Oops, I thought this was for playback when I assigned this to myself. This is for YUYV->I420 conversion in the NuppelVideoRecorder?.

(In [21709]) Use libswscale to convert from YUYV to YUV420P in NuppelVideoRecorder?. Closes #5259. This is not a perfect implementation as the libswscale routines are not aware of the 'interlaced chroma problem' and do not attempt to fix it. It is, however, still an improvement over the existing code.
