+The cx23416 can produce (and the cx23415 can also read) raw YUV output. The
+format of a YUV frame is specific to this chip and is called HM12. 'HM' stands
+for 'Hauppauge Macroblock', which is a misnomer as 'Conexant Macroblock' would
+be more accurate.
+
+The format is YUV 4:2:0 which uses 1 Y byte per pixel and 1 U and V byte per
+four pixels.
+
+The data is encoded as two macroblock planes, the first containing the Y
+values, the second containing UV macroblocks.
+
+The Y plane is divided into blocks of 16x16 pixels from left to right
+and from top to bottom. Each block is transmitted in turn, line-by-line.
+
+So the first 16 bytes are the first line of the top-left block, the
+second 16 bytes are the second line of the top-left block, etc. After
+transmitting this block the first line of the block on the right to the
+first block is transmitted, etc.
+
+The UV plane is divided into blocks of 16x8 UV values going from left
+to right, top to bottom. Each block is transmitted in turn, line-by-line.
+
+So the first 16 bytes are the first line of the top-left block and
+contain 8 UV value pairs (16 bytes in total). The second 16 bytes are the
+second line of 8 UV pairs of the top-left block, etc. After transmitting
+this block the first line of the block on the right to the first block is
+transmitted, etc.
+
+The code below is given as an example on how to convert HM12 to separate
+Y, U and V planes. This code assumes frames of 720x576 (PAL) pixels.
+
+The width of a frame is always 720 pixels, regardless of the actual specified
+width.
