Apparatus for demultiplexing an input 4:4:4:4-standard digital video signal into first and second output 4:2:2-standard digital video signals comprises a demultiplexer for separating the input video signal into a luminance input signal, two chrominance input signals, and a key input signal; for each said chrominance input signal, a first low-pass filter for low-pass filtering said chrominance input signal with a cut-off frequency preferably equal to 7/16 the Nyquist frequency of the input chrominance signal, a sub-sampler for sub-sampling the signal from the first filter at a ratio of 2:1 to provide a first chrominance output signal, a subtracter for subtracting the signal from the first filter from the input chrominance signal, a demodulator for demodulating the signal resulting from the subtraction with a signal preferably of 3/8 the Nyquist frequency, and a second low-pass filter for low-pass filtering the resulting demodulated signal with a cut-off frequency equal to half the Nyquist frequency, the sub-sampler sub-sampling the signal from the second filter at a ratio of 2:1 to provide a second chrominance output signal; and multiplexers for supplying the luminance input signal and two of the chrominance output signals as the first output video signal, and the key input signal and the other two of the chrominance output signals as the second output video signal.
