+	<title>Description</title>
+
+	<para>M420 is a YUV format with &frac12; horizontal and vertical chroma
+	subsampling (YUV 4:2:0). Pixels are organized as interleaved luma and
+	chroma planes. Two lines of luma data are followed by one line of chroma
+	data.</para>
+	<para>The luma plane has one byte per pixel. The chroma plane contains
+	interleaved CbCr pixels subsampled by &frac12; in the horizontal and
+	vertical directions. Each CbCr pair belongs to four pixels. For example,
+Cb<subscript>0</subscript>/Cr<subscript>0</subscript> belongs to
+Y'<subscript>00</subscript>, Y'<subscript>01</subscript>,
+Y'<subscript>10</subscript>, Y'<subscript>11</subscript>.</para>
+
+	<para>All line lengths are identical: if the Y lines include pad bytes
+	so do the CbCr lines.</para>
