This is because with the ``gpu`` VO, in addition to requiring support in your DRM driver, - requires support for xrgb2101010 in your EGL driver + requires support for xrgb2101010 in your EGL driver. + yuyv only ever works with the ``drm`` VO. ``--drm-draw-surface-size=<[WxH]>`` Sets the size of the surface used on the draw plane.
