 This is old, please use current git head.

 The decoder (correctly) provides yuvj444p.

 > [scale @ 0x7faefc0016e0] w:854 h:480 fmt:yuvj444p -> w:854 h:480
 fmt:yuv420p flags:0x4

 Since ffplay (the application) only supports showing yuv420p, this
 conversion is necessary. If you use an encoder that supports YUV444 (like
 ffv1, tiff or v308), this conversion is not necessary (the colour dynamics
 may be wrong, but this has nothing to do with yuv444 vs yuv420).

 I hope the explanation is sufficient, I am closing this ticket.
