Description
===========

Similar to the packed RGB formats these formats store the Y, Cb and Cr
component of each pixel in one 16 or 32 bit word.

.. note::

    #) Bit 7 is the most significant bit;

    #) The value of a = alpha bits is undefined when reading from the driver,
       ignored when writing to the driver, except when alpha blending has
       been negotiated for a :ref:`Video Overlay <overlay>` or
       :ref:`Video Output Overlay <osd>` for the formats Y444, YUV555 and
       YUV4. However, for formats AYUV32 and VUYA32, the alpha component is
       expected to contain a meaningful value that can be used by drivers
       and applications. And, the formats XYUV32 and VUYX32 contain undefined
       alpha values that must be ignored by all applications and drivers.
