Please refer to
https://github.com/AspeedTech-BMC/openbmc/releases/download/v07.02/SDK_User_Guide_v07.02.pdf.
At Page 132, 'Video stream data format – ASPEED mode compression'
describes the data format.
Is above information enough??
Besides, I have already had openbmc's kvm support this aspeed format.
The source code of the implementation will be released after performance
tuning finished.
