You still may need an intervening element to deinterlace the stereo
video stream for existing elements that handle video/x-raw-yuv.
Interleaved (including side-by-side and top-bottom) video complicates
the identification of adjacent pixels. Not all elements can simply
pass off interleaved stereo video as non-stereo video. A naive blur
filter applied to side-by-side and top-bottom interleaved stereo video
would result in blurring together each channel's adjacent edges.
Row-by-row interleaved video would be destroyed!
