YUV zero = RGB greenish, as you see there. From the looks of it, the
pitch on the buffer is wrong, and you're showing the parts of the
buffer that are left zeroed as if they were part of the visible
region. (Pitch = how many bytes between lines, which is not
necessarily the visible width of the buffer, as it can be rounded up
to various values for various reasons.)

Hope this helps,
