| 4 | | It's been in use for this purpose since at least 2012, so people may have become accustomed to the old behaviour, as I was. It's not about quality, just multi platform compatibility, and using the recommended video format to achieve that. I was always perfectly happy with not specifying any pix_fmt and leaving it at yuvj422p but various people would complain they couldn't play my videos when I emailed them to illustrate something! yuv420p solved it, but I don't know what hw/sw they were using. But perhaps the documentation needs updating instead, I shall leave that to the ffmpeg developers to decide, your additional flag solves my problem, thank you. |
