David, thanks for the reply.

Unfortunately GStreamer (from git) isn't close to configuring and
building under Cygwin...at least on my system.
Other than the flashing noise component (see previous email for sample)
ffmpeg 4:2:2 produces near-valid data. PSNR measurments indicate that
4:4:4 luma is fine, but chroma is a smeared mess. This may be the
"comet" artifact you mention.

make check output says "All 8 tests passed" however these two failures
were recorded:
cogorc_resample_horiz_1tap:
backup function : PASSED
compiled function: COMPILE FAILED
cogorc_resample_horiz_2tap:
backup function : PASSED
compiled function: COMPILE FAILED
Rerunning the ffmpeg tests with ORC_CODE=backup produces identical
output (i.e. the noise artifact is still present).

I have seen the "comets" effect appear at certain compression ratios
then not be there at slightly higher and lower ratios. I haven't made
any explicit attempt to modify transform-depth. The minimal changes
I've made are in libavcodec/libschroedingerenc.c libschroedinger_encode_init():
schro_encoder_setting_set_double(p_schro_params->encoder,
"gop_structure", SCHRO_ENCODER_GOP_INTRA_ONLY);
schro_encoder_setting_set_double(p_schro_params->encoder,
"enable_noarith", 1);
schro_encoder_setting_set_double(p_schro_params->encoder,
"rate_control", SCHRO_ENCODER_RATE_CONTROL_LOW_DELAY);
schro_encoder_setting_set_double(p_schro_params->encoder,
"bitrate", avccontext->bit_rate);
(I'm assuming the first two are redundant.)

The sample footage linked in my earlier email is 1920x1080.
