YUYV to NV12

ThexFyuyv2nv12function converts a single-channel YUYV (YUV 4:2:2) image format to NV12 (YUV 4:2:0) format. YUYV is a sub-sampled format, 1 set of YUYV value gives 2 Y values and 1 U and V value each.

API Syntax

template void xFyuyv2nv12(xF::Mat & _src,xF::Mat & _y_image,xF::Mat & _uv_image)

Parameter Descriptions

The following table describes the template and the function parameters.
