Strong NAK, this patch is definitely incorrect.

The Cubox (which I assume is the platform you're generating these patches
for) produces RGB at it's output, which are the RGB values from the
framebuffer.  Being a computer-like "IT" source, these RGB values have the
full range, from zero to 255, rather than the limited range of 16 to 235.

With limited range, a value of 16 is black and 235 is white.  However, the
values in the framebuffer will be zero for black and 255 for white.

A VQR value of 1 gives limited range of 16 to 235, whereas zero gives
full range.  The value of zero is correct here.
