The Nokia bug is a problem in phonon's gstreamer backend...

It claims to support all kinds of RGB formats but in fact only supports
xRGB in native endianness.

Could you add that to the Nokia bugreport? The code in question is in
qwidgetvideosink.cpp:

Not only does it claim to support all 32bpp RGB formats but also *all* YUV
formats (and a "bpp" field is not used for YUV at all).

If they need some help with fixing this they can contact me via mail but
I don't want to subscribe to yet another bugtracker...
