I've had the same issue converting yuvj422p(Canon camera) to yuv422p, but I
don't think ffmpeg is the issue.

IMHO it's probably due to Mplayer (and ?other players) treating yuvj AS yuv.
(Mplayer gives a message to this effect). This would cause the yuvj source be
displayed with an erroneously high contrast (with cropping) because the range of
values for yuv is lower than yuvj (see
http://git.ffmpeg.org/?p=ffmpeg;a=blob;f=libavcodec/imgconvert.c#l49 and
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/YCbCr).  

By comparison the ffmpeg output looks like it has low gamma... but it probably
doesn't.

In addition ffmpeg stills from the source and output look the same (no gamma
change). So it doesn't 'see' any difference after conversion to the new format.
