YUY2 and YV12 are raw uncompressed video, just in YCbCr colorspace
which is what makes sense for movies/photographs/etc. What happened is
that Arpi changed the way the "raw" video "decoder" determines the
colorspace and format of the stream, and no one updated the tvi
interface to pass along the necessary info in the way the new decoder
needs. Anyone care to fix this?
