My current graphics card is an 8800GTX, but the color contrast is not a graphics card issue, it's a general nvidia driver issue.
My previous graphics card was a 6600gt, and before that i had a 4200Ti/Le.
Whe i used some very old driver (84.something) with these cards everything was fine but with more recent drivers i get the color problem. So i know it's a driver issue.
There is nothing wrong with your codec, it's 100% nvidia's fault, they're perfectly aware of this issue but they've never corrected it.

The problem is that the only way i found to circumvent this issue, is to force players to use software yuv to rgb conversion when available, or to force all codecs to output RGB instead of YV12, when this option isn't available.

Which is why i'm asking for an option to ouput RGB.
