hmm, imho the colorspace selection should be a bit smarter ;)
ideally we should implement some benchmarking ...
but what about assigning some score for each format so that query_format() 
outputs some score instead of just 1 or 0 and each supported format of every 
codec has a score too, and we simply choose the one which has the smallest 
sum (codec format score + vo format score) later we can then turn this score 
into the microsecs per frame ...
or we simply disable all formats which we dont like (like yuy2 in vo_x11, and 
bgr in vidix/mach64 as it looks pretty bad if its scaled)
