[vlc-devel] UYVY incompatible with the transform filter

[Felix Paul Kühne]

Dudes,

we had a bug report on the forum recently that the transform filter refuses UYVY content, so I investigated it and found that the filter automatically denies this chroma format since it is a "weird packed format".

At first, I have no idea what that is supposed to be. Secondly, applying the following diffs enables the filter just nicely with any visible (note that I'm red-green colorblind *cough*) artifacts.

Any comments or ideas?

Cheers,

Felix
