What is difference between YCbCr and YUV?

YUV and YCbCr are different. YUV is an analog system. YCbCr is a digital system and widely used in video compression e.g. MPEG2.

What is YCbCr?

Acronym. Definition. YCbCr. Green (Y), Blue (Cb), Red (Cr) (digial video color space)

What is YUV image?

YUV is a color model typically used as part of a color image pipeline. It encodes a color image or video taking human perception into account, allowing reduced bandwidth for chrominance components, compared to a “direct” RGB-representation.

What is the difference between YUV and YCbCr?

YUV is from analog video, and is the name of the colorspace. YCbCr is the equivalent for limited range digital YUV. The two terms are often used interchangeably when discussing digital video. Which is unfortunate, because “YUV” in the digital realm is a technique which lends its name to actual color space definitions.

What is the difference between RGB and YCbCr?

The main difference between RGB and YCbCr is, RGB helps to show off darker scenes and brighter scenes better compared to YCbCr. It is difficult to compare RGB and YCbCr because they essentially work together and monitors know what to do with them.

What is the difference between YPbPr and YUV?

The YPbPr color model used in analog component video and its digital version YCbCr used in digital video are more or less derived from it, and are sometimes called Y′UV. ( CB/PB and CR/PR are deviations from grey on blue–yellow and red–cyan axes, whereas U and V are blue–luminance and red–luminance differences respectively.

What happens to the YCbCr after decoding?

After/during decoding it’s upsampled to YCbCr 4:2:2. If RGB output is required the YCbCr is upsampled again to 4:4:4 (sometimes done only once 4:2:0 -> 4:4:4) and a standard and simple transform converts to RGB 4:4:4.
