DVB TS h264 1080i streams incorrectly decoded as r601 when it should be r709

Honestly, I never perceived the difference

Well, admittedly the difference isn't so big that you would say it just looks wrong if you don't have a reference to compare to. But once you do... you start noticing things look somewhat weird.

This started when I was comparing some encodes to their originals and I saw the different colors. I didn't undestand what was going on at first and I had all sorts of theories. It all became clear when I started messing around with VirtuaDub after a long time and noticed the "decode format" dialog with it's selector for 601 and 709. After playing with that it all became clear.
