Hi Jean-Michel,

Thank you for the patch.

Same comment as for patch 3/4.

Please move this after prepare() to match the order of the .h file.

Where do those values come from ? Unless I'm mistaken, the hardware uses
the following formulas to convert from RGB to YCbCr.

Y = 16 + 0.2500 R + 0.5000 G + 0.1094 B
Cb = 128 - 0.1406 R - 0.2969 G + 0.4375 B
Cr = 128 + 0.4375 R - 0.3750 G - 0.0625 B

Don't you need to saturate the gains, either here, or in prepare() ?

This holds on a single line.

I'd move this line just after setting the gains above.

Does this mean that if RGB worked, you would prefer using that ?

All this can move inside the if () below.
