No problem on the upside down. I was just comparing to the image posted above. I guess I was thinking the images were encoded in a way that when the colors are debayered into the 3 respective stacks, displayed items in a specific color would only show up in one of the three stacks. But I see that these are to apparently help determine which of 4 debayer patterns should be extracted. I think a nice image to have would be encoded in standard RGGB mode, with some R, G, and B colored symbols of unique shapes and corresponding text in the corresponding same colored pixels. Then when the correct debayer routine runs, one should see only the corresponding colored text and symbols transferred to their respective 1/4 stack.
