Laga supports yv12, huffyuv doesn't - but I did hear there was some "hack" or "otehr development" of huffyuv which does?
Anyhow, I'm not even sure lagarith supports yv12, I've had some funny experience with it like this:
I have a laga file which is yv12, right? I mux it into mkv with mkvtoolnix(yes, the 7gb file - don't ask) - I then check it and it's not YV12! A friend explained it somehow to me that lagarith reverses it on playbeack or I don't remember what - so anyway... I have much misinformation which I can offer
