FYI, If anyone is curious if their display is capable of receiving 4:4:4 chroma subsampling from a HTPC, I found a great test image below. Most TV's are only capable of 4:2:2 from a 4:2:0 source image, but some will do 4:4:4.
HTPC Chroma Subsampling: (Source) Y'CbCr 4:2:0 -> (madVR) Y'CbCr 4:4:4 to RGB -> (TV) Y'CbCr 4:2:2 or Y'CbCr 4:4:4 or RGB to RGB
4:4:4 Display Support Test Image
Drag image into MPC-HC window; Support determined by the numbers most clearly visible: 4:2:2 or 4:4:4.
