# chromahold

The chromahold element will remove all color information for all colors except a single one and converts them to grayscale.

Sample pipeline:

     gst-launch-1.0 videotestsrc pattern=smpte75 ! \
       chromahold target-r=0 target-g=0 target-b=255 ! \
       videoconvert ! autovideosink     \

This pipeline only keeps the red color.
