I'd like to suggest something. Look at emulators, e.g.:

Sony Playstation uses dozens of video formats.
It uses dozens of texture types.
In order to emulate it you need to convert them to current colorspace.

I can't really point you where are the routines because I never tried
to dive into their sources. I suspect that

http://www.pcsx.net (emulator core)
or
http://sourceforge.net/projects/peops/ (software gfx plugin)

could have a thing you are looking for.
