Support Both 15-bit and 16-bits Per Pixel Modes
Many new games and applications have support for 15-bit and 16-bits per
pixel high color modes. If you wish to support these modes, don’t make
the mistake of assuming that all devices will support 16-bit high color
modes, or that all devices will support 15-bit high color modes. There
are devices in the field that support only 15-bit modes, and there are
also devices in the field that support only 16-bit modes. Hence it is
of vital importance that your application code support both of these
color depths to ensure maximum compatibility.
