These formats are not defined by this specification, they are just
listed for reference and to avoid naming conflicts. If you want to
register your own format, send an e-mail to the linux-media mailing list
`https://linuxtv.org/lists.php <https://linuxtv.org/lists.php>`__
for inclusion in the ``videodev2.h`` file. If you want to share your
format with other developers add a link to your documentation and send a
copy to the linux-media mailing list for inclusion in this section. If
you think your format should be listed in a standard format section
please make a proposal on the linux-media mailing list.

    -  .. _V4L2-PIX-FMT-S5C-UYVY-JPG:

       -  ``V4L2_PIX_FMT_S5C_UYVY_JPG``

       -  'S5CI'

       -  Two-planar format used by Samsung S5C73MX cameras. The first plane
	  contains interleaved JPEG and UYVY image data, followed by meta
	  data in form of an array of offsets to the UYVY data blocks. The
	  actual pointer array follows immediately the interleaved JPEG/UYVY
	  data, the number of entries in this array equals the height of the
	  UYVY image. Each entry is a 4-byte unsigned integer in big endian
	  order and it's an offset to a single pixel line of the UYVY image.
	  The first plane can start either with JPEG or UYVY data chunk. The
	  size of a single UYVY block equals the UYVY image's width
	  multiplied by 2. The size of a JPEG chunk depends on the image and
	  can vary with each line.

	  The second plane, at an offset of 4084 bytes, contains a 4-byte
	  offset to the pointer array in the first plane. This offset is
	  followed by a 4-byte value indicating size of the pointer array.
	  All numbers in the second plane are also in big endian order.
	  Remaining data in the second plane is undefined. The information
	  in the second plane allows to easily find location of the pointer
	  array, which can be different for each frame. The size of the
	  pointer array is constant for given UYVY image height.

	  In order to extract UYVY and JPEG frames an application can
	  initially set a data pointer to the start of first plane and then
	  add an offset from the first entry of the pointers table. Such a
	  pointer indicates start of an UYVY image pixel line. Whole UYVY
	  line can be copied to a separate buffer. These steps should be
	  repeated for each line, i.e. the number of entries in the pointer
	  array. Anything what's in between the UYVY lines is JPEG data and
	  should be concatenated to form the JPEG stream.

       -  ``V4L2_PIX_FMT_FLAG_PREMUL_ALPHA``

       -  0x00000001

       -  The color values are premultiplied by the alpha channel value. For
	  example, if a light blue pixel with 50% transparency was described
	  by RGBA values (128, 192, 255, 128), the same pixel described with
	  premultiplied colors would be described by RGBA values (64, 96,
	  128, 128)
