If I understand your question correctly, I am adjusting video levels by means 
of an external C program and writing the video frames to a file using ffmpeg 
for compliance with EBU R 103. This almost works but for the fact that ffmpeg 
is altering the video levels I have set. Is that much clear?
I am not reporting a "bug" or an "issue", but am requesting something that does 
not yet exist in ffmpeg.
out_range=full gives video levels in the range 0 - 255. That is the normal, 
expected behavior of the program and is not the issue here, hence it is not a 
"bug".

out_range=tv gives video levels in the range 16 - 235. That is likewise normal 
and expected behavior and not the issue.

I am requesting a new feature, out_range=unity, which would not alter the video 
levels, i.e. would not force them to 0 - 255 or 16 - 235 but instead would 
leave the values in the frame buffer alone.

There is no instance of ffmpeg producing the "wrong" video levels so I don't 
know what you would learn from the command line or the program output.

Does that make it clear?
