I found this thread from over 3 years ago:
Is it possible convert the black levels with a transcode filter, or should I be
capturing differently with dvgrab?
I now have the same question. There was no answer back then. That thread turned
into a discussion about
whether you should do it or not. I think that some video I have is 16-235 and
it looks washed out on a
computer screen. Is there a filter to convert either the source our output
video to 0-255? Or does anyone
know of a utility that will tell me what the black / white levels are in the
source video file?
I think this was fixed a long time ago. I actually remember that thread.
Using "-x ffmpeg" with current transcode versions should take care of
this issue.
Here's my DV-to-DVD script which provides the proper black and white levels:
