+ * .. _V4L2-PIX-FMT-Y4:
+
+ - ``V4L2_PIX_FMT_Y4``
+ - 'Y04 '
+ - Old 4-bit greyscale format. Only the most significant 4 bits of
+ each byte are used, the other bits are set to 0.
+ * .. _V4L2-PIX-FMT-Y6:
+
+ - ``V4L2_PIX_FMT_Y6``
+ - 'Y06 '
+ - Old 6-bit greyscale format. Only the most significant 6 bits of
+ each byte are used, the other bits are set to 0.
+ * .. _V4L2-PIX-FMT-S5C-UYVY-JPG:
+
+ - ``V4L2_PIX_FMT_S5C_UYVY_JPG``
+ - 'S5CI'
+ - Two-planar format used by Samsung S5C73MX cameras. The first plane
+ contains interleaved JPEG and UYVY image data, followed by meta
+ data in form of an array of offsets to the UYVY data blocks. The
+ actual pointer array follows immediately the interleaved JPEG/UYVY
+ data, the number of entries in this array equals the height of the
+ UYVY image. Each entry is a 4-byte unsigned integer in big endian
+ order and it's an offset to a single pixel line of the UYVY image.
+ The first plane can start either with JPEG or UYVY data chunk. The
+ size of a single UYVY block equals the UYVY image's width
+ multiplied by 2. The size of a JPEG chunk depends on the image and
+ can vary with each line.
+
+ The second plane, at an offset of 4084 bytes, contains a 4-byte
+ offset to the pointer array in the first plane. This offset is
+ followed by a 4-byte value indicating size of the pointer array.
+ All numbers in the second plane are also in big endian order.
+ Remaining data in the second plane is undefined. The information
+ in the second plane allows to easily find location of the pointer
+ array, which can be different for each frame. The size of the
+ pointer array is constant for given UYVY image height.
+
+ In order to extract UYVY and JPEG frames an application can
+ initially set a data pointer to the start of first plane and then
+ add an offset from the first entry of the pointers table. Such a
+ pointer indicates start of an UYVY image pixel line. Whole UYVY
+ line can be copied to a separate buffer. These steps should be
+ repeated for each line, i.e. the number of entries in the pointer
+ array. Anything what's in between the UYVY lines is JPEG data and
+ should be concatenated to form the JPEG stream.
+ * .. _V4L2-PIX-FMT-MT21C:
+
+ - ``V4L2_PIX_FMT_MT21C``
+ - 'MT21'
+ - Compressed two-planar YVU420 format used by Mediatek MT8173.
+ The compression is lossless.
+ It is an opaque intermediate format and the MDP hardware must be
+ used to convert ``V4L2_PIX_FMT_MT21C`` to ``V4L2_PIX_FMT_NV12M``,
+ ``V4L2_PIX_FMT_YUV420M`` or ``V4L2_PIX_FMT_YVU420``.
+ * .. _V4L2-PIX-FMT-SUNXI-TILED-NV12:
+
+ - ``V4L2_PIX_FMT_SUNXI_TILED_NV12``
+ - 'ST12'
+ - Two-planar NV12-based format used by the video engine found on Allwinner
+ (codenamed sunxi) platforms, with 32x32 tiles for the luminance plane
+ and 32x64 tiles for the chrominance plane. The data in each tile is
+ stored in linear order, within the tile bounds. Each tile follows the
+ previous one linearly in memory (from left to right, top to bottom).
+
+ The associated buffer dimensions are aligned to match an integer number
+ of tiles, resulting in 32-aligned resolutions for the luminance plane
+ and 16-aligned resolutions for the chrominance plane (with 2x2
+ subsampling).
