IPP Feature request

[pdoege]

I would like to see the YUV->YUV Join/Split support 3 plane 420.

Right now it only seems to support UV interleaved data.

The workaround is to scale the U,V planes and then use 4:2:2 functions.Not all that efficient.

Hi,

did you see these function in ippi.h file for IPP v4.0? It seems to be what you are looking for.

Hello -

Thanks for your response. I believe that I tried that function and received a stride error result. I will try again and get back to you.

Thanks,

Unfortunately, ippiJoin420_8u_p2c2R wants interleaved UV data and my data is not interleaved. I actually do have 3 planes. Y,U,V. The 422 functions allow 3 planes, but the 420 functions assume 2 planes. Weird, but that is how it is.

I would like to have 420 functions that allow me to pass in 3 planes.

Thanks,

Hi,

thanks, now I understand. So, please submit your request through technical support channel and we will revise it when planning the next version.
