Hello

I am testing with ffmpeg the IMX50 D10 encoding, and I am very close to my target but I have to create 3 metadata values in the MXF header which is standard in most IMX50 MXF ecndodings:

+ SIGNAL STANDARD = 1 (ITU 601)
+ display y offset = 32 - I am encoding 720x608 sources with included VBI area (32 lines high at the top) -> the offset 32 defines the active picture -> 720x576
+ Color siting = 4 (Rec 601)

Is it possible to encoded with ffmpeg in a way that these values can be written?
If yes, which syntax should I add to my used syntax?
If no, could the option be implemented in future?

My used ffmpeg syntax is:
ffmpeg -i <inputfile> -map 0:v -map 0:a -c:v mpeg2video -r 25 -pix_fmt yuv422p -aspect 4:3 -minrate 50000k -maxrate 50000k -b:v 50000k -intra -flags +ildct+ilme+low_delay -intra_vlc 1 -non_linear_quant 1 -ps 1 -qmin 1 -qmax 3 -top 1 -dc 10 -bufsize 2000000 -rc_init_occupancy 2000000 -rc_buf_aggressivity 0.25 -tag:v mx5p -c:a pcm_s24le -ar 48000 -f mxf_d10 <outpufile.mxf>

I check the MXF metadata with BMX mxf2raw.exe (BBC)
I use 2 examples:
1.) a ffmpeg encoded MXF and
2.) a MXF from the Carbon Coder (Rhozet).

The carbon Coder playout shows me the wanted values:

The FFMPEG MXF looks like this (the 3 values are not set correctly):
