9 <refpurpose>Formats with &frac12; horizontal and vertical
10chroma resolution. This format has two planes - one for luminance and one for
11chrominance. Chroma samples are interleaved. The difference to
12<constant>V4L2_PIX_FMT_NV12</constant> is the memory layout. Pixels are
13grouped in macroblocks of 64x32 size. The order of macroblocks in memory is
14also not standard.

20 <para>This is the two-plane versions of the YUV 4:2:0 format where data
21is grouped into 64x32 macroblocks. The three components are separated into two
22sub-images or planes. The Y plane has one byte per pixel and pixels are grouped
23into 64x32 macroblocks. The CbCr plane has the same width, in bytes, as the Y
24plane (and the image), but is half as tall in pixels. The chroma plane is also
25grouped into 64x32 macroblocks.</para>
26 <para>Width of the buffer has to be aligned to the multiple of 128, and
27height alignment is 32. Every four adjactent buffers - two horizontally and two
28vertically are grouped together and are located in memory in Z or flipped Z
29order. </para>

41 The requirement that width is multiple of 128 is implemented because,
42the Z shape cannot be cut in half horizontally. In case the vertical resolution
43of macroblocks is odd then the last row of macroblocks is arranged in a linear
44order. </para>
45 <para>In case of chroma the layout is identical. Cb and Cr samples are
46interleaved. Height of the buffer is aligned to 32.
