It is essentially the same as uyvy but with different component ordering packed within the twopixel macropixel.
V appear to do a linear interpolation between points, i want it to do a simple duplication of points so that when we sample the v plane in the compose operation we get the original pixel values instead of the interpolated values. A large number of surface formats is supported, including rgb and yuv pixel formats. Nv21 the same as nv12, except that cb and cr samples are swapped so that the chroma array of unsigned char would have cr followed by cb for each sample such that if addressed as a littleendian word type, cr would be in the least significant bits and cb would be in the most significant bits.
