How to tell libv4l2 which src_fmt should be prefered?

Dear maintainer and user,

Is there a way to tell libv4l2 which native source format it should
prefer to convert from? For example my uvcvideo webcam supports natively
YUYV and MJPG (see output below) and when I request V4L2_PIX_FMT_RGB24 I
see in the logs:

...
VIDIOC_S_FMT app requesting: RGB3
VIDIOC_S_FMT converting from: YUYV
request == VIDIOC_S_FMT
  pixelformat: RGB3 640x480
  field: 1 bytesperline: 1920 imagesize921600
  colorspace: 8, priv: 0
...

So it picks up YUYV as source format. I had a look at
v4lconvert_try_format but can see no way how to do this.

Regards, Andy
