yuv chroma sampling data calculator online

Use yuv chroma sampling data estimate online for pixels, bit depth, chroma samples per four pixels. Use chroma count 4 for 4:4:4, 2 for 4:2:2, 1 for 4:2:0; excludes padding. Geometric or data-budget estimate. Sensor behavior, processing, focus breathing and recording overhead are excluded unless explicitly modeled.

How to use it

Enter pixels. Set bit depth, chroma samples per four pixels. Select Calculate and check the labeled output. Copy or download the JSON result.

Options and example settings

OptionChoices / valueExample default
pixelsMain input. Whole numbers. 2073600
bit depthOption. Whole numbers. 10
chroma samples per four pixelsOption. Whole numbers. 2

Calculation method

bits_per_frame = pixels*bit_depth*(1+chroma_samples_per_four_pixels/2) (^ means exponentiation; trig functions ending in d use degrees).

Worked examples

Apply yuv chroma sampling data estimate to the case below, keeping the displayed units and assumptions. Use chroma count 4 for 4:4:4, 2 for 4:2:2, 1 for 4:2:0; excludes padding.

YUV Chroma Sampling Data Estimate — worked case

Settings: bit depth: 10; chroma samples per four pixels: 2

Input:

2073600

Calculated result for these inputs:

Output:

{
  "bits_per_frame": 41472000
}

Choose the right tool

Exposure equivalence, depth-of-field equivalence and file storage describe different questions. Review whether a value is a focal length, a crop factor, a shutter time, a frame rate or a bitrate before calculating.

Limitations and common mistakes

  • Use chroma count 4 for 4:4:4, 2 for 4:2:2, 1 for 4:2:0; excludes padding. Geometric or data-budget estimate. Sensor behavior, processing, focus breathing and recording overhead are excluded unless explicitly modeled.
  • Use the displayed unit in every field. Ratios and percentages are different inputs; percent fields use values such as 25 rather than 0.25.
