I know there must be a conversion, but at least RGB -> YCbCr is nothing more than a matrix multiplication. All programs on a PC work on a RGB basis, even on Windows. the conversion is ideally always done at the very end by the graphics driver, so it shouldn't matter that opengl only supports RGB, as far as I found out in the past.
The thing is, TVs, AV Receivers, ... are all tuned to this format, It is also standard for Blue Rays, ... Nevertheless even RGB Limited would still be a huge improvement of the radeon driver in combination with HTPCs and AV-Receivers.
Just for Info:
I'm back with the radeon OSS driver. Couldn't get my CPU load of one core below 100% with fglry 14.12, even though I deactivated vSync in the drivers, xbmc and xfce. mpeg2 streams with temporal deinterlacing is now back at ~5% cpu load with a better picture quality.
