Thanks for your fast answer and the explanation!
So you're saying that yavta doesn't check that the image is coming from the previewer-output and has maybe a padding? So yavta needs a patch to extend the line width when not aligned on 32 bytes or strip out the padding?

After reading your explanation about the padding, I understand why the image is broken on the previewer out. But if I configure the pipeline to output on the resizer-out, the image is still broken (without my patch). I used a resolution of 800x600 for the resizer-out, so the alignment should be fine:
# media-ctl -v -r -l '"mt9p031 2-0048":0->"OMAP3 ISP CCDC":0[1], "OMAP3 ISP CCDC":2->"OMAP3 ISP preview":0[1], "OMAP3 ISP preview":1->"OMAP3 ISP resizer":0[1], "OMAP3 ISP resizer":1->"OMAP3 ISP resizer output": 0[1]'
# media-ctl -v -f '"mt9p031 2-0048":0 [SGRBG12 800x600], "OMAP3 ISP CCDC":2 [SGRBG10 800x600], "OMAP3 ISP preview":1 [UYVY 800x600], "OMAP3 ISP resizer":1 [UYVY 800x600]'
# yavta -f UYVY -s 800x600 -n 8 --skip 3 --capture=1000 --stdout /dev/video6 | mplayer - -demuxer rawvideo -rawvideo w=800:h=600:format=uyvy -vo fbdev
Does my patch just output a good picture by chance, or is there really an issue?
