14	<para>In this format each four bytes is two pixels. Each four
15bytes is two Y's, a Cb and a Cr. Each Y goes to one of the pixels, and
16the Cb and Cr belong to both pixels. As you can see, the Cr and Cb
17components have half the horizontal resolution of the Y component.
18<constant>V4L2_PIX_FMT_YUYV </constant> is known in the Windows
