Hello. This patch provides basic support for video on the Sony PS3 Linux framebuffer. Scaling, format-conversion, and drawing is done from the SPEs, so there is little performance impact to PPE applications. This is by no means production quality code, but it is a very good start and a good example of how to use the PS3's hardware capabilities to accelerate video playback on the box. The driver has been verified to work with ffplay, mplayer and xine. This piece of software has been developed at the IBM R&D Lab in Boeblingen, Germany and is now returned to the community. Enjoy !

.SH "STRUCTURE DATA"
.TP 20
\fBformat\fR
Overlay format (see below)
.TP 20
\fBw, h\fR
Width and height of overlay
.TP 20
\fBplanes\fR
Number of planes in the overlay\&. Usually either 1 or 3
.TP 20
\fBpitches\fR
An array of pitches, one for each plane\&. Pitch is the length of a row in bytes\&.
.TP 20
\fBpixels\fR
An array of pointers to teh data of each plane\&. The overlay should be locked before these pointers are used\&.
.TP 20
\fBhw_overlay\fR
This will be set to 1 if the overlay is hardware accelerated\&.
.SH "DESCRIPTION"
.PP
A \fBSDL_Overlay\fR is similar to a \fI\fBSDL_Surface\fR\fR except it stores a YUV overlay\&. All the fields are read only, except for \fBpixels\fR which should be \fIlocked\fR before use\&. The \fBformat\fR field stores the format of the overlay which is one of the following: 
.PP
.nf
\f(CW#define SDL_YV12_OVERLAY  0x32315659  /* Planar mode: Y + V + U */
#define SDL_IYUV_OVERLAY  0x56555949  /* Planar mode: Y + U + V */
