2.6.27. V4L2_PIX_FMT_NV16 (‘NV16’), V4L2_PIX_FMT_NV61 (‘NV61’)¶
V4L2_PIX_FMT_NV61
Formats with ½ horizontal chroma resolution, also known as YUV 4:2:2.
One luminance and one chrominance plane with alternating chroma samples
as opposed to V4L2_PIX_FMT_YVU420
2.6.27.1. Description¶
These are two-plane versions of the YUV 4:2:2 format. The three
components are separated into two sub-images or planes. The Y plane is
first. The Y plane has one byte per pixel. For V4L2_PIX_FMT_NV16, a
combined CbCr plane immediately follows the Y plane in memory. The CbCr
plane is the same width and height, in bytes, as the Y plane (and of the
image). Each CbCr pair belongs to two pixels. For example,
Cb0/Cr0 belongs to Y’00, Y’01.
V4L2_PIX_FMT_NV61 is the same except the Cb and Cr bytes are
swapped, the CrCb plane starts with a Cr byte.
If the Y plane has pad bytes after each row, then the CbCr plane has as many pad bytes after its rows.
Byte Order. Each cell is one byte.
