i think thats not supported, and there arent many codecs which use it
after all mplayer with lavc doenst support it either ...
IMHO ignore it for now and after the swscaler move is done you can
add support for it to swscale :)

its not so simple, there are many slightly different YUV types, fabrice
picked 2, the one most commonly used in mpeg videos and the one used in jpeg
swscale supports any (minus bugs and half implemented stuff), via 
sws_setColorspaceDetails()

In the past you could go to a library and read, borrow or copy any book
Today you'd get arrested for mere telling someone where the library is
