Video RGB to YCbCr Converter

Translate 8-bit RGB and YCbCr code values with the matrix and quantization range your video actually uses.

Direction
R′G′B′ to Y′CbCr coefficients
Y 16–235; Cb/Cr 16–240
0–255
0–255
0–255

This converts gamma-encoded R′G′B′ values; it does not linearize RGB or change the transfer function, primaries or HDR metadata. BT.2020 here means its non-constant-luminance Y′CbCr matrix. Results use round-to-nearest 8-bit codes. Limited range maps Y to 16–235 and chroma to 16–240; full range uses 0–255 with a 127.5 chroma centre before rounding. Reverse conversion clips RGB values outside 0–255 and reports them. No image or video is decoded, stored or uploaded.
