RPi2 Limited color range? White clipping

No. Levels above 235 should not exist in video files.

601 is the default for SD videos. It is a limited range (16-235) format. 16 is complete black. 235 is complete white.
709 is the default for HD videos. It is a limited range (16-235) format. 16 is complete black. 235 is complete white.

When calibrating a display,
Quote:What about 0-16 flashing? Well all proper video rips and iso rips have no colour information from 0-16 and above 235. If you turn up the brightness higher you will not see any extra detail in movies, and the black will become greyish, you also might loose details at the white end, because brightness is too high.

235 is as white as you can get, and with standard video encodes you should not exceed that (and if done it should be clipped at pure white).
