This seems to work fine with inteldrm, a 1280x800 display and
video device /dev/video:
encodings: yuy2
frame sizes (width x height, in pixels) and rates (in frames per second):
320x240: 30
352x288: 30
640x480: 30
800x600: 15
1024x768: 12
1280x720: 7
1280x800: 7
1600x1200: 5
controls: brightness, contrast, saturation, hue, gamma, sharpness

No idea either... if you wanted to reduce the risk of breakage, I guess
you could limit the resolution only if -O is not passed.
