Settings for AVCHD 2.0 Progressive compliant file, playback

[Selur]

Using Hybrid, x264 everything beyond that range gets clipped.

not totally sure Hybrid or x264 crop this, it might be just the player.

LCDs should be able to playback full range (0-255).
Players (software&hardware) should follow the VUI flag regarding luma range.
So even if the luma range is 0-255 if the flag says 'limited/tv' the player should crop the luma, most players assume tv/limited when no flag is present.

There are multiple ways to deal with it:
a. simply change the output flag in x264 (x264->VUI->Video Usability Information->Luma Range)
b. Overwrite the output luma range (Misc->Overwrite Output->Output Luminance)
c. use Vapoursynth or Avisynth to adjust the Luma (compress to 16-235, 0-255) and then use a. or b.
Keep it as it is and simply cut off the luma range, I think this is what usually is done, but I could be wrong there. (best ask the folks over at videohelp.com, there are a bunch of folks who regularly and professionally deal with dv content)
