+PVR350 Video decoder registers 0x02002800 -> 0x02002B00
+=======================================================
+
+This list has been worked out through trial and error. There will be mistakes
+and omissions. Some registers have no obvious effect so it's hard to say what
+they do, while others interact with each other, or require a certain load
+sequence. Horizontal filter setup is one example, with six registers working
+in unison and requiring a certain load sequence to correctly configure. The
+indexed colour palette is much easier to set at just two registers, but again
+it requires a certain load sequence.
+
+Some registers are fussy about what they are set to. Load in a bad value & the
+decoder will fail. A firmware reload will often recover, but sometimes a reset
+is required. For registers containing size information, setting them to 0 is
+generally a bad idea. For other control registers i.e. 2878, you'll only find
+out what values are bad when it hangs.

+ five.
+
+ To correctly program set the filter, this whole procedure must be done 16
+ times. The actual register contents are copied from a lookup-table in the
+ firmware which contains 4 different filter settings.

+ Reg 2874 = No divide
+

+
+ When the bits-per-pixel is set to 8, the colour mode is ignored and
+ assumed to be 8 bit indexed. For 16 & 32 bits-per-pixel the colour depth
+ is honoured, and when using a colour depth that requires fewer bytes than
+ allocated the extra bytes are used as padding. So for a 32 bpp with 8 bit
+ index colour, there are 3 padding bytes per pixel. It's also possible to
+ select 16bpp with a 32 bit colour mode. This results in the pixel width
+ being doubled, but the color key will not work as expected in this mode.
+
+ Colour key is as it suggests. You designate a colour which will become
+ completely transparent. When using 565, 555 or 444 colour modes, the
+ colour key is always 16 bits wide. The colour to key on is set in Reg 2A18.
+
+ Local alpha is a per-pixel 256 step transparency, with 0 being transparent
+ and 255 being solid. This is only available in 32 bit & 8 bit indexed
+ colour modes.
+
+ Global alpha is a 256 step transparency that applies to the entire osd,
+ with 0 being transparent & 255 being solid.
