My casual announcement about yuv + scaling hardware assist is very preliminary so just hang on to your hats folks. All the cool low level stuff is being developed by Mark Vojkovich from Va Reasearch --- I am avoiding his real e-mail cause we don't want to swamp him with silly questions right now just to wrap up his cool work 8) I guess the "guys" are probably going to march down the X low level drivers and try to provide the yuv + scaling hardware assist functionality till then I can't say much cause this stuff is fairly brand new. Just enjoy the good news and the new Millenium!
