Does Nokia 770 hardware really support YUV colorspace?
My understanding is that the only support we have right now is through
the DSP.
Hello Daniel,
could we clarify this a bit? As far as I understand it the omapfb
framebuffer driver (drivers/video/omap/hwa742.c) has access to the Epson
742 chip and according to kernel source supports YUV->RGB color
conversion when transferring data from main memory to internal video ram
via OMAPFB_UPDATE_WINDOW ioctl defined in
include/asm-arm/arch-omap/omapfb.h. There is color format parameter in
this ioctl and one of the defined ones is OMAPFB_COLOR_YUV420
Do you say that DSP has such driver duplicated in DSP code and accesses
this chip directly? or does the DSP do colorspace conversion in its code
and the features of HWA747 chip and ioctls with OMAPFB_COLOR_YUV420 is
actually not used (maybe because there is some problem with it)?
I thought DSP only decodes video to shared framebuffer in main memory
and the actual transfer to epson chip is done by omapfb driver i.e. by
ARM CPU from gstreamer or directly from mediaserver code.
Am I wrong with this? If not, is it possible to add YUV surfaces to
xserver (via Xv or Nokia Xsp extensions) so it could be used from X11
code in Mplayer or (nonpartched or patched) SDL ?
I have actually asked similar question but so far got no answer.
