clipping by chroma key CK (or MSB of α-8): OR-ed with other clip
list or clip-bit mask, if ClipMode is enabled
00: chroma key CK is not used for clipping, CK → α
01: chroma key CK is not used for clipping, inverted CK → α
10: clipping, based on chroma key CK bit
11: clipping, based on chroma key CK bit inverted

RW
clipping based on DMA2 read information: OR-ed with chroma
key CK, if ClipCK is enabled
000: no clipping based on DMA2 read, DMA2 can be used to write
decomposed format U
001: no clipping based on DMA2 read; DMA2 reads 8-bit-α to
substitute CK in α-formats

use of DMA3 to report (write) key of clip information back:
00: no clip output, DMA3 can be used to write decomposed format
V, or to serve BRS, read or write

10: DMA3 writes back (clip mask-CK); 1-bit /pixel
11: DMA3 writes applied pixel clipping back; 1-bit/pixel

7.13 Scaler event description
The RPS is controlled by the PAUSE command on special
events. This section describes the video events. Because
of these video events a defined time for an upload is given.
Table 90 shows the UPLOAD handling for the scaler
registers. For special applications it can also be useful to
select other combinations. For this the termination of the
UPLOAD must guarantee that the UPLOAD is completed
before the processing restarts, e.g. with a new line or a
command can be used to change single bits within a
Dword. Each video event can force only one upload at a
time. This means that the video event is cleared by the
circuit as described below, if the corresponding upload has
occurred.
