Thanks for the complementary infos. YCbCr420 (which you can't just mux on the channels directly?) dates back to HDMI 1.4 though


As the source device, you can simply choose not to send YCbCr420.


Absolutely - YCbCr 4:2:2 and 4:2:0 use different encodings across the lines to balance bandwidth. Complexity then continues to stack with deep colour pixel packing. There's a beautiful pocket of simplicity for RGB 4:4:4 8bpc which is essentially a direct digital encoding of ye oldy RGBHV signals. More than OK for any retro-comp needs, and a fun starting point for general hacking.
