pgm is a subformat of pnm. pnm is not really a fileformat itself, but a 
family of fileformats.

If you want the old yuv 4:2:0 images, you can use: -vo pnm:pgmyuv. The 
output is exactly the same, but it's faster than before.

It does not rely on another vo driver anymore, as it used to be. It 
calculates the MD5 sum directly on the suplied mp_image data.
