Hopefully you can see now that the second configuration doesn't make a ton of sense!
Most TV do RGB->YCbCr conversion so in the end:


GPU driver configured to output RGB: LAV decoder output (YCbCr) → madVR (converts from YCbCr to RGB) → HDMI output (RGB) → TV (converts from RGB to YCbCr) → TV (converts from YCbCr to RGB)

Only with PC Mode yo can avoid that conversion, but not always.

In the end, with most TV, you can only choose where RGB->YCbCr conversion is done, through GPU or TV.
