I suppose my point is that the world is bigger than KDE and Gnome. If I can support GStreamer and others by a simple conversion, then perhaps I should. I cannot write individual conversion for every application and framework out there.

Nope. The sample comes from a Hauppauge PVR-250 which is primarily an MPEG compression engine (iTVC15 based). As I mentioned upstream, this really looks like an intermediate step between YUV and MPEG. MPEG does motion prediction on the Y plane in 16x16 blocks. This format was also returned by the Windows driver when an untagged pin in GraphEdit was connected up. Hauppauge has recently released a beta ".ax" file to deal with this on the Windows side.
