Yes, the YCbCr values in palettes are matched accordingly against the
video stream. As per the specification:
"Y, Cr and Cb shall have the same color matrix as the associated HDMV
Video stream: 525-60/625-50 (Rec.601); 1080i, 720p (ITU-709)"

Otherwise the specification notes that valid values in palettes are:
-Y: 16-235
-Cr: 16-240
-Cb: 16-240
-Transparency: 0-255, where a value of ‘255’ indicates full opacity
and ‘0’ indicates full transparency.
(Each Palette entry shall have a default transparency value of 0; the
default values of Y, Cr and Cb are undefined.)
