1636,FRAPS Video Color Space,DJX,,"The color space that ffmpeg uses on FRAPS videos seems to be wrong or mishandled.

First, running ffplay on a video (color space detected as yuvj420p), the output looks washed out (too white).
Second, when transcoding a video to H264 (which keeps the color space as yuvj420p) the output looks too dark. Forcing the color space to yuv420p, the output looks fine.
Third, when transcoding a video to MPEG2 (which changes the colorspace to yuv420p), the output looks fine.

Here is how ffmpeg detects the original file:
