Userspace certainly known what destination format is relevant for the video, so it shouldn't have to query the driver about it except to check that the format is indeed supported. > I don't know the specifics of each platform and the only example I can > think of is the Amlogic HEVC decoder that can produce NV12 for Main, > but only outputs a compressed proprietary format for Main10. > > I unfortunately don't have an idea about how to implement that, but > I'll think about it. On the first generations of Allwinner platforms, we also have a vendor- specific format as output, that we expose with a dedicated format. There's no particular interfacing issue with that. Only that userspace has to be aware of the format and how to deal with it.
