Do you mean that the BGR thing is a bug in Gem or what? Because if it 
isn't, then YUV might as well be YVU, in which case you'd still use 
[pix_colormatrix], but possibly with different constants... what is 
[pix_colormatrix] supposed to do on a YUV image ? are its coefficients 
still RGB-wise in that case?
