YV12 vs RGB?

[hacbao]

I want to convert the color to RGB, but AVI2DVD only convert to YV12.
So which one is better.

My DVD player and my TV supports RGB.

here is the scripts:
# Avisynth Script Made By Avi2Dvd
AviSource("C:\Documents and Settings\Administrator\Desktop\Movies\Game Movies\onimusha.avi", false)

ConvertToYV12()
LanczosResize(720,480,0.0,0.6)
AddBorders(0,0,0,0)

If RGB is better, then how can I convert my movie color to RGB, well using AVI2DVD ofcourse.

Please answer which one is better.

My DVD player and my TV supports RGB.
BUT your DVDplayer takes as input stream a YV12 mpeg1/2 (and maybe mpeg4 one).
And as you do prepare a script for later encoding of a stream purposed to be played back on a SAP you should end up in your script using a colorspace which is prefered by your encoder like YUY2 which is prefered by CCE. Another story is TmpgEnc, that one wants RGB input.

Your SAP is able to send to your TV a well RGB signal (out of the YV12 mpeg stream), which finally brings you a more clear and sharp picture.

the RGB-Component output stands in no relation with the kind of chroma before compressing the video.

there are also YUV-component outputs on several DVD Players.

RGB and YUV are easily convertable between each other using a hand full oy OpAmps and resistors...
There is no visual difference between both.
