 Nageru works in 16-bit floating-point RGBA internally. High-quality conversion to and
 from subsampled Y'CbCr (typically 4:2:2 for inputs and 4:2:0 for outputs)

+but be aware that 8-bit Y'CbCr, however common, cannot capture the full color

+you can enable 10-bit Y'CbCr input and output with --10-bit-input and
+--10-bit-output, respectively, although you should be aware that client
+support for 10-bit H.264 is very limited. Also, Quick Sync Video does not
+support 10-bit H.264 encoding, so in this case, the digital intermediate needs
+to be encoded in software.
