The RGB is broken only in a way where it swaps colours, the color matrix 
coeficients and register configurations are OK (which is what other people who 
will want to add it will need to figure out again from scratch if you remove the 
code).

I dont want this merged before this is solved in some way where those values are 
preserved.
