ok i got YV12 working with SDL (and Intel Indeo5 vfw):

after i figured out that the src[1] and src[2] as the parameter for
draw_frame()
is a red hering (just the memory contents of the rest after char
*our_out_buffer;)

and in reality the planes are just behind in memory starting at src[0]
 
priv->framePlaneY bytes  - the Y Plane 
priv->framePlaneUV bytes - the V Plane
priv->framePlaneUV bytes - the U Plane

i tried that:

    dst = (uint8_t *) *(priv->overlay->pixels);
    memcpy (dst, src[0], priv->framePlaneY + 2 * priv->framePlaneUV);

this gave me a green display.

then i found out that the size of o_bih.biSizeImage was equal to
priv->framePlaneY
(missing 2 * priv->framePlaneUV bytes)
which had the result, that the codec only decoded the Y-Plane and then
stoped.

after i adjusted o_bih.biSizeImage the video played correct :-)
