fccColorEncoding (FOURCC)

Field containing a name for the color space.

The FOURCC represents a name (for example, RGB8, Y24, and so on). The bits per pixel and data layout of the color space is implied by the name.

This field can have the following values:

FOURCC(ch0,ch1,ch2,ch3)

     ((ULONG)(BYTE)(ch0) | ((ULONG)(BYTE)(ch1) <<8) | \
     ((ULONG)(BYTE)(CH2)<<16) | ((ULONG)(BYTE)(CH3)<<24))
