The Y plane has one byte per pixel. The Cb data 19 constitutes the second plane which is half the width and half 20 the height of the Y plane (and of the image). Each Cb belongs to four 21 pixels, a two-by-two square of the image. For example, 22 Cb<subscript>0</subscript> belongs to Y'<subscript>00</subscript>, 23 Y'<subscript>01</subscript>, Y'<subscript>10</subscript>, and 24 Y'<subscript>11</subscript>. The Cr data, just like the Cb plane, is 25 in the third plane. </para> 26 27 <para>If the Y plane has pad bytes after each row, then the Cb 28 and Cr planes have half as many pad bytes after their rows. In other 29 words, two Cx rows (including padding) is exactly as long as one Y row 30 (including padding).</para> 31 32 <para><constant>V4L2_PIX_FMT_NV12M</constant> is intended to be 33 used only in drivers and applications that support the multi-planar API, 34 described in <xref linkend="planar-apis"/>. </para> 35 36 <example> 37 <title><constant>V4L2_PIX_FMT_YVU420M</constant> 4 × 4 38 pixel image</title> 39 40 <formalpara> 41 <title>Byte Order.</title> 42 <para>Each cell is one byte. 43 <informaltable frame="none"> 44 <tgroup cols="5" align="center"> 45 <colspec align="left" colwidth="2*" /> 46 <tbody valign="top"> 47 <row> 48 <entry>start0 + 0:</entry> 49 <entry>Y'<subscript>00</subscript></entry> 50 <entry>Y'<subscript>01</subscript></entry> 51 <entry>Y'<subscript>02</subscript></entry> 52 <entry>Y'<subscript>03</subscript></entry> 53 </row> 54 <row> 55 <entry>start0 + 4:</entry> 56 <entry>Y'<subscript>10</subscript></entry> 57 <entry>Y'<subscript>11</subscript></entry> 58 <entry>Y'<subscript>12</subscript></entry> 59 <entry>Y'<subscript>13</subscript></entry> 60 </row> 61 <row> 62 <entry>start0 + 8:</entry> 63 <entry>Y'<subscript>20</subscript></entry> 64 <entry>Y'<subscript>21</subscript></entry> 65 <entry>Y'<subscript>22</subscript></entry> 66 <entry>Y'<subscript>23</subscript></entry> 67 </row> 68 <row> 69 <entry>start0 + 12:</entry> 70 <entry>Y'<subscript>30</subscript></entry> 71 <entry>Y'<subscript>31</subscript></entry> 72 <entry>Y'<subscript>32</subscript></entry> 73 <entry>Y'<subscript>33</subscript></entry> 74 </row> 75 <row><entry></entry></row> 76 <row> 77 <entry>start1 + 0:</entry> 78 <entry>Cb<subscript>00</subscript></entry> 79 <entry>Cb<subscript>01</subscript></entry> 80 </row> 81 <row> 82 <entry>start1 + 2:</entry> 83 <entry>Cb<subscript>10</subscript></entry> 84 <entry>Cb<subscript>11</subscript></entry> 85 </row> 86 <row><entry></entry></row> 87 <row> 88 <entry>start2 + 0:</entry> 89 <entry>Cr<subscript>00</subscript></entry> 90 <entry>Cr<subscript>01</subscript></entry> 91 </row> 92 <row> 93 <entry>start2 + 2:</entry> 94 <entry>Cr<subscript>10</subscript></entry> 95 <entry>Cr<subscript>11</subscript></entry> 96 </row> 97 </tbody> 98 </tgroup> 99 </informaltable> 100 </para> 101 </formalpara> 102 103 <formalpara> 104 <title>Color Sample Location.</title> 105 <para> 106 <informaltable frame="none"> 107 <tgroup cols="7" align="center"> 108 <tbody valign="top"> 109 <row> 110 <entry></entry> 111 <entry>0</entry><entry></entry><entry>1</entry><entry></entry> 112 <entry>2</entry><entry></entry><entry>3</entry> 113 </row> 114 <row> 115 <entry>0</entry> 116 <entry>Y</entry><entry></entry><entry>Y</entry><entry></entry> 117 <entry>Y</entry><entry></entry><entry>Y</entry> 118 </row> 119 <row> 120 <entry></entry> 121 <entry></entry><entry>C</entry><entry></entry><entry></entry> 122 <entry></entry><entry>C</entry><entry></entry> 123 </row> 124 <row> 125 <entry>1</entry> 126 <entry>Y</entry><entry></entry><entry>Y</entry><entry></entry> 127 <entry>Y</entry><entry></entry><entry>Y</entry> 128 </row> 129 <row> 130 <entry></entry> 131 </row> 132 <row> 133 <entry>2</entry> 134 <entry>Y</entry><entry></entry><entry>Y</entry><entry></entry> 135 <entry>Y</entry><entry></entry><entry>Y</entry> 136 </row> 137 <row> 138 <entry></entry> 139 <entry></entry><entry>C</entry><entry></entry><entry></entry> 140 <entry></entry><entry>C</entry><entry></entry> 141 </row> 142 <row> 143 <entry>3</entry> 144 <entry>Y</entry><entry></entry><entry>Y</entry><entry></entry> 145 <entry>Y</entry><entry></entry><entry>Y</entry> 146 </row> 147 </tbody> 148 </tgroup> 149 </informaltable> 150 </para> 151 </formalpara> 152 </example> 153 </refsect1> 154 </refentry> 155 156 <!-- 157 Local Variables: 158 mode: sgml 159 sgml-parent-document: "pixfmt.sgml" 160 indent-tabs-mode: nil 161 End: 162 -->
