Hi,

I am trying to create a FBO with&nbsp; GL\_LUMINANCE (16 bit) texture on OMAP(OPENGL ES 1.4).&nbsp; But the FBO creation fails as only a Colour texture can be bound to a FBO. Is there an alternative to it?, Do i have something like R16 etc which i can use? 
  

&nbsp;
  

Is there any support for YUV422 textures on OMAP3430?
