See also: > https://wiki.videolan.org/YUV#NV12.2FNV21 Right. However, there is a case that we should consider for Exynos SoC. Exynos SoC has a Hardware video codec which is called MFC. This hardware can use a special function for improving decoding and encoding performance, which makes it possible for Y and CbCr data are placed in separated memory banks. So for this, a V4L2 guy of Samsung added a new format - NV12M - to v4l2 fourcc header. AFAIK, the pixels of NV12 format would consist into, yyyyyyyyyy yyyyyyyyyy uvuvuvuvu The memory region of each data - y or uv - is continuous each other. In this case, the base address of each gem buffer is same. On the other hand, the pixels of NV12M consist into, yyyyyyyyyy yyyyyyyyyy ................. uvuvuvuvu The memory region of each data - y or uv - isn't continuous each other. So Exynos driver identifies image format according to two cases above. In this case, the base address of each gem buffer is different.

Because I don't see any indication for First, above my comment was wrong. For this, I sent email again. Anyway, only NV12/NV21 + NV12/21 tiled are supported - this format contains macro blocks, which is specific to MFC (Hardware Video codec for Exynos SoC). However, we should consider NV12M format as I mentioned above. > that.
