Description

I have tried to find out why mov tiff pal8 files doesn't decode with correct colors in qt
(probably the same reason would be for png/tga pal8 in mov).

pal8_qt.tif - tiff 8bpp exported from qt

ffmpeg -i pal8_qt.tif -vcodec tiff -pix_fmt pal8 pal8.mov - decodes with correct colors in qt (no swscale)

(
or

ffmpeg -i pal8_qt.tif -pix_fmt pal8 pal8_ff.tif
ffmpeg -i pal8_ff.tif -vcodec tiff -pix_fmt pal8 pal8.mov - decodes with correct colors in qt (no swscale)
}

ffmpeg -i pal8_qt.tif -pix_fmt rgb24 rgb24.tif
ffmpeg -i rgb24.tif -vcodec tiff -pix_fmt pal8 pal8_from_rgb24.mov - decodes with wrong colors in qt (swscale - rgb24 -> pal8)

(or

ffmpeg -i pal8_qt.tif -s 32x32 -pix_fmt pal8 pal8_ff_32.tif
ffmpeg -i pal8_ff_32.tif -vcodec tif -vcodec tiff -pix_fmt pal8 pal8_ff_32.mov) - decodes with wrong colors in qt (swscale - resize)
}

now when I modify $F7 value to $F8 (see pal8_diff.jpg) in pal8_from_rgb24.mov file and copy/paste
mdat hunk from pal8.mov (see pal8.jpg) to pal8_from_rgb24.mov (see pal8_from_rgb24.jpg) then modified
file have correct colors in qt, so looks like the problem is in data exported by ffmpeg when conversion
to pal8 happens (and swscale is used).

Replying to ami_stuff:

so looks like the problem is in data exported by ffmpeg when conversion
to pal8 happens (and swscale is used).

iirc, qt uses the same palette for encoding (no matter the input) and decoding, swscale can produce a different palette that cannot be saved on container level, I sent a patch once as poc:
http://thread.gmane.org/gmane.comp.video.ffmpeg.devel/138898

FFmpeg does not warn that the palette is not saved in mov.
