Mixer properties:
- mixer index (0 or 1), important for determining CCSC base (see my patches)
- number of VI planes (usually 1)
- number of UI planes (usually 1 or 3)
- writeback support (yes/no)
- scale line buffer length (2048 or 4096)
- smart backligth support (yes/no)

channel properties (for both, VI and UI):
- scaler support (yes/no, usually yes)
- overlay count (seems to be always 4)
- VEP support (yes/no)

Those are properties found in BSP de_feat.c, so I guess that's enough to make 
any kind of decision in the code.

Usually, but we can't count on that, first mixer has 1 VI and 3 UI planes and 
second mixer has 1 VI and 1 UI plane.

Best regards,
Jernej
