One would need to be able to access the decoded frame containing 2 fields
and perhaps use an OpenGL shader to perform field based colour space
conversion and then draw the first field to the frame buffer. At the next
vertical sync the shader would convert the second field and draw that to
the frame buffer. With VDPAU is there a new OpenGL interop function that
allows access to the decoded frame?
I should add I have not yet ventured into writing OpenGL shaders!
