Context: I am using ffmpeg for processing a raw video file in raw <em>y4m</em> format to <em>mp4</em> at various brightness values for an experiment looking at OLED display performance. After looking at the ffmpeg documentation I was able to find the following filter (
) for modifying the brightness of the video.
<a href="https://ffmpeg.org/ffmpeg-filters.html#eq" rel="nofollow">https://ffmpeg.org/ffmpeg-filters.html#eq</a>
I used the information from the ffmpeg documentation and the following article (<a href="https://wjwoodrow.wordpress.com/2015/07/12/more-ffmpeg-hell/" rel="nofollow">https://wjwoodrow.wordpress.com/2015/07/12/more-ffmpeg-hell/</a>) to get videos with different qualities. But neither the ffmpeg documentation nor the article explains these values in detail.
Question: Now my query is that, what does these
values range correspond to? Is it a percentage? For example,
gives me a output video with reduced brightness. But how do I quantify this brightness reduction? Does this
correspond to 50% reduction in original brightness? In other words, is this a linear scale?
This is my first post on stackoverflow. Thanks!
