Rec ITU.R BT.709-5 Part 2 section 5 item 5.6 (quantization levels):
8bit:
Black level (R',G',B',Y') : 16
Achromatic (Cb, Cr) : 128
Nominal Peak (R', G', B', Y') : 235
Nominal Peak (Cb, Cr) : 16 and 240

for 10bit multiply by 2**2.

NB, ignore part 1 of Rec709, it is the old HDTV system which isn't used.

Please, incorrect comments will just trip people up somewhere else.
