I believe I will have FFMPEG output YUV444P16LE, as I don't care to get into the particulars of chroma subsampling.

Now, another question:

I have noticed that increasing the Y value does brighten a pixel, but also causes to appear desaturated. It looks like I have to modify the Cb and Cr components when I adjust Y. How does this work?

EDIT: Bonus question: Is it true that some YCbCr combinations are outside of the RGB colorspace? Are such values invalid?
