OK, I've got it sorted. What confuses matters is the "(?) Format Not Accepted by Codec, YMMV" comment when transcoding to the 'non-native' vfw codec formats, like MagicYUV and the GoPro Cineform codec. I'll post some shots of the config panels to illustrate what I mean, when I have a moment. But yes, when transcoding these 8-bit YUV420-709 sources to Cineform, setting the YUY2 output colorspace explicitly to 'Rec709' resolves the issue with the black-coded specular highlights - the GoPro vfw Cineform codec complains that "(?) Format Not Accepted by Codec, YMMV" but it still works. I guess that's the reason for the 'YMMV' ;>)
