1080p h264 TS -> 720p MKV: colorspace question

[feather]

Hi all,

I have some 1080p ts files of, I believe, European origin that I want to re-encode to 720p MKV. Here's how I've been doing it:

1. Demux audio with h264tsto

2. Mux video to MKV container with h264tsto

3. Re-encode MKV to 720p with MeGUI x264

At this point, MeGUI warns that the input colorspace is incompatible and asks to insert a convert to YV12 command in the AVS. Without the conversion, x264 errors out on the YUY input. With the conversion, the dynamic range of the output is badly compressed.

Is there a better way to do this for higher quality re-encoding of YUY MKV files?
