Hi Thibault,

Have you analyzed Hans response for the previous patchset [1] ?
I am not an expert in the subject but it seems he is right. GSCALER
datasheet uses term 'color space conversion' to describe conversions
between RGB and YCbCr, not for describe colorspaces as in V4L2.
GSC_(IN|OUT)_RGB_(HD|SD)_(WIDE|NARROW) macros used to set IN_CON and
OUT_CON registers of GSCALER are probably used incorrectly, they should
not be set according to pix_mp->colorspace but rather according to
pix_mp->ycbcr_enc and pix_mp->quantization. pix_mp->colorspace should be
just copied from output to capture side.

Please fix the patch accordingly, and if you are interested you can
prepare another patch to fix register setting.
