That's a good point. I'm not sure if the userspace should expect the list of values of an enum to change under its feet > > - more importantly, whether we're choosing an YUV output or not is > > completely hidden away from the userspace even though it might > > have some effect on > the visual quality output (thinking about > > YUV420 and YUV422 here mostly). > > IMO driver should select highest achievable quality.

On RPi4 in some situations (high bpc count), we can't output anything else than YUV422. I'd expect to have some way for the userspace to know at least. And then, for subsampling formats it's fairly easy to tell which is the highest achievable quality, but it would be pretty hard for YUV444 vs RGB? Maxime
