I sent mail to the original poster, the problem is that the chip set
used on the VideoPix hardware is the SAA9051. This is not compatible
with the YUV to RGB converter chip listed above. (If I am wrong
someone will hopefully correct me.)

The VideoPix equations, as given to me by Phillips for the SAA9051
are,

	/*
	 * Philips YUV to RGB. These
	 * aren't the same as standard YUV to RGB.
	 * The equations are
	 *
	 * R = 1.1759*Y + 1.2743*V
	 * G = 1.1759*Y - 0.3184*U - 0.6335*V
	 * B = 1.1759*Y + 1.674*U;
	 */
