All video decoders use the YCbCr colorspace. You'll need
to convert that to YIQ for NTSC.

You can create a YCbCr file with vlc.

vlc -I rc <file to decode> -V yuv --yuv-file=<output file> --yuv=chroma=UYVY

This will create a YCbCr file with 4:2:2 chroma in the format
Cb Y Cr Y Cb Y Cr Y .......

vlc does put a header and frame markers in the file. I don't know
if that can be disabled.

YCbCr files only contain the active video (720x480 for NTSC). You'll
have to create and insert the vertical and horizontal blanking.

After finishing my AM Stereo transmitter, I have decided to build an NTSC modulator. I think I have the actually modulation and filter blocks down, I just need to firgure out how to get the right signals from a digital video file. The file source wouldn't work; I would probably have to use gstreamer. Anyone know exactly what I'm looking for and how to get it? I need brightness, hue, saturation, and I believe that is it.

Thanks.
