PixelFormat
The property
PixelFormat
(in category

12 bits there is a selection of plain or packed format. The plain format uses more bandwidth
than the packed format, but is easier to process in the software. Table 7.4 shows the number of
bits per pixel to are required for a pixel format. Fig. 7.5 shows the bit alignment of the packed
pixel formats.
