You can reduce luminance/contrast with yuvcorrect like so: lav2yuv test.avi | yuvcorrect -Y Y_1.0_0_255_0_235 | yuvplay This maps the input brightness (luminance) range 0-255 to the output range 0-235. 235 is "white", so this will bring anything greater into the visible range. However, if your input was greater than 255 it was already clipped and the above will not help (nothing will). The purists out there might prefer yuvcorrect -Y Y_1.0_16_255_16_235 which preserves "black" at value 16. Or, if your problem is that the NTSC setup is not being removed (my camcorder has this feature), try this: yuvcorrect -Y Y_1.0_16_255_0_239 which just shifts the whole image down by 16 luminance values.
