- pwdisswordfish8 5y agoI would prefer him not to use Twitter at all, and blog instead.
- emn13 5y agoHowever, the attractiveness of privatizing network effects and the simplicity of doing so pretty much killed any hope of blogs being a long term pragmatic solution for self publishing. Time to move on or at least give up until the underlying driving forces are changed.

- cornstalks 5y agoWoah, easy there. I have no qualms with what John said. I don't expect someone to delve into all the complexities in Twitter. Overall I agree with John and I wish we had more ways to natively support Y'CbCr. The point of my post was to help casual readers know that this gets complicated fast. Someone might think defining FMT_JPEG_YUV is easier and simpler than it actually is. I don't fault John for that. It's not a fault of anyone, really.
- brigade 5y agoVK_KHR_sampler_ycbcr_conversion is defined to support the practically used matrix coefficients, range, siting, and has both 2 and 3 plane formats.
- cornstalks 5y agoOh neat, I didn't know about that one! I've never used Vulkan but looking at the API it does indeed cover the most common things. I wish we had more rendering APIs with that kind of support; I'd love to be able to use it.
