I've seen this question asked once or twice on this board, but never a response: In the Moto 6412 setup menu, there is an option for "HDMI Colorspace", and you can select either "RGB" or "YCC 4:4:4". Any idea which produces more natural colors?

On a thread someone posted that in order to adjust the tint of a picture over HDMI, it needs to send YPbPr colorspace info not RGB, and "YPbPr is YCC 4:4:4 in Motorola's parlance".

I think I prefer the look of YCC over the RGB, but RGB is the default, and I'm not sure if my decision was swayed by the content I was using as a judgment. I'm connecting to a Sony 50A2000 SXRD via HDMI, btw.

Actually.... YCC is YCbCr. ;)

Yes, I've done a little reading and this page (http://computing-dictionary.thefreedictionary.com/YUV) was particularly informative.

So, I guess my real question may be for the Sony A2000 forum: does the HDMI inputs expect color data as RGB or YCbCr or is it autosensing in which case either option is ok?
