One more change was needed to get raw nv12 output properly. With
attached patch I can
./ffmpeg_g -i input.avi -s 1280x720 -pix_fmt nv12 -f rawvideo -y output.nv12
and then feed output.nv12 to the display frame by frame.

I haven't worked on nv12 support as input to swscale yet. I'll do it
either this afternoon or in two weeks =)
