    <p>A further revision, and this is now community wiki because I've made so many errors in answering this question alone that it makes sense.</p> <p>Although CoreGraphics would prima facie be able to do a 32bit to 16bit conversion for you using something like the following code, it instead reports that "4 integer bits/component; 16 bits/pixel; 3-component color space; kCGImageAlphaPremultipliedLast" is an unsupported parameter combination. So it seems that CoreGraphics can't internally comprehend 4 bits/channel images.</p> <pre><code>CGColorSpaceRef colourSpace = CGColorSpaceCreateDeviceRGB(); CGDataProviderRef dataProvider = CGDataProviderCreateWithData(NULL, buffer, width*height*4, NULL); CGImageRef inputImage = CGImageCreate( width, height, 8, 32, width*4, colourSpace, kCGImageAlphaPremultipliedLast | kCGBitmapByteOrder32Big, dataProvider, NULL, NO, kCGRenderingIntentDefault); CGDataProviderRelease(dataProvider); unsigned char *outputImage = (unsigned char *)malloc(width*height*2); CGContextRef targetContext = CGBitmapContextCreate( outputImage, width, height, 4, width*2, colourSpace, kCGImageAlphaPremultipliedLast | kCGBitmapByteOrder32Big); CGContextDrawImage(targetContext, CGRectMake(0, 0, width, height), inputImage); /* uplopad outputImage to OpenGL here! */ CGContextRelease(targetContext); CGImageRelease(inputImage); CGColorSpaceRelease(colourSpace); free(outputImage); </code></pre> <p>However, per the documentation:</p> <blockquote> <p>Supported pixel formats are kCVPixelFormatType_420YpCbCr8BiPlanarVideoRange, kCVPixelFormatType_420YpCbCr8BiPlanarFullRange and kCVPixelFormatType_32BGRA, except on iPhone 3G, where the supported pixel formats are kCVPixelFormatType_422YpCbCr8 and kCVPixelFormatType_32BGRA.</p> </blockquote> <p>So for reducing the size of what you receive, you could switch to a YCbCr colour space. As the buffers come back biplanar (ie, all y components for the entire image, then all Cb and Cr components as a separate block), you can upload them as two individual textures to OpenGL and recombine in a shader, assuming you're happy limiting yourself to the 3GS and above, and can afford to spend 2 texture units of the 8 that are available on SGX iOS devices.</p> <p>YCbCr is a colour space that represents colour as brightness (the Y) and colour (the CbCr) separately. It's been shown empirically that the colour channel can be sampled at a lower frequency than the brightness without anybody being able to tell. The '420' part of the pixel format describes how many Cb and Cr components you get for each 4 Y components — essentially it's telling you that you get one sample of Cb and one of Cr for every four samples of Y. Hence you have a total of six bytes to describe four pixels, for 12 bits/pixel rather than 24 bits/pixel in RGB. That saves you 50% of your storage.</p> <p>For GL purposes you've potentially incurred an extra cost because it's two uploads rather than one. You're also going to need to use three varyings if you want to avoid dependent texture reads, and I think the SGX is limited to eight of those.</p>

    1. COThanks for answering. Do you mean I can supply 32 bit pixel data to glTexImage2D, and it will convert to 16 bit by itself? If that is the case, then which parameters must be changed? My call looks like glTexImage2D(GL_TEXTURE_2D, 0, GL_RGBA, bufferWidth, bufferHeight, 0, GL_BGRA, GL_UNSIGNED_BYTE, CVPixelBufferGetBaseAddress(imageBuffer));

    2. COActually, it would be 2 textures. 1 texture for Y plane (GL_LUMINANCE) and the other one for UV plane (GL_LUMINANCE_ALPHA). And that's how you you get planes: CVPixelBufferGetBaseAddressOfPlane(imageBuffer, 0); CVPixelBufferGetBaseAddressOfPlane(imageBuffer, 1);

    3. CO@Alex: quite right; that's what I should have inferred from "biplanar". @Gus: the GL_RGBA tells OpenGL what format to use internally, the GL_BGRA tells it what format you're supplying in. So switch the GL_RGBA to the format you want.

Detail views are divided into sections. All the information in the data section comes from columns in the selected row. The other sections display data from other, related rows.

Related data can be related in a to-one or a to-many fashion. Captions of data related in a to-many fashion link to a list view showing a filtered view of the table.

Try moving around until you find a non-empty to-many entry and click on the label to get to one. You can move back to the root by clicking on the database name in the header.
