The RGB Converter automatically ensures hardware compatibility. This is an RGB color space converter that supports conversion between different RGB formats. The converter supports the following formats: RGB8 (gray and palettized), RGB565, RGB555, RGB24, and RGB32. The input or output format can be set to AUTO, to enable free negotiation with the up or down stream filter. The property page is shown in the following figure:
The RGB converter page provides a user interface for changing the converter settings. Input and output types can be set by selecting from the input and output drop-down list boxes. The check box toggles between the RGB and BGR modes. The following table shows the controls and their descriptions:
