I use OpenGL shaders to do color conversion from YUV to RGB. For example, on YUV420P, I create 3 textures (one for Y, one for U, one for V) and use the texture GLSL call to get each texture. Then I use matrix multiplication to get the RGB value. Each of thes textures have the format GL_RED, because they store only 1 component.
This all works on C++. Now I'm using the safe OpenGL Rust library glium. I'm creating a texture like this:
let mipmap = glium::texture::MipmapsOption::NoMipmap;
let format = glium::texture::UncompressedFloatFormat::U8;
let y_texture = glium::texture::texture2d::Texture2d::empty_with_format(&display, format, mipmap, width as u32, height as u32).unwrap();
let u_texture = glium::texture::texture2d::Texture2d::empty_with_format(&display, format, mipmap, (width as u32)/2, (height as u32)/2).unwrap();
let v_texture = glium::texture::texture2d::Texture2d::empty_with_format(&display, format, mipmap, (width as u32)/2, (height as u32)/2).unwrap();
See that the sizes of the U and V textures are 1/4 of the Y texture, as expected for YUV420P.
as you see, for YUV420P I've chosen glium::texture::UncompressedFloatFormat::U8, which I think is the same as GL_RED.
The problem is that I don't know how to fill this texture with data. Its write method expect something that can be converted into a RawImage2D. However, all the filling for methods for RawImage2D expect an RGB image.
I need a method to fill only Y to the first texture, then only U to the second, and only V to the third.
