For the YUV color modes (4:1:1, 4:2:2, and 4:4:4), the drive unpacks the data into rgb8. It could just as efficiently unpack to bgr8. Using rgb8 seems more consistent with the other modes, but if there is a significant performance difference, I suppose those modes (only) could publish bgr8, instead. Is that worth doing? -- joq
