Ah, yes. Excellent! I have added your tool to the first post (RV9 Info) in this thread.

The Helix Producer M1 build works fine with YV12, but there may be a ~20% loss in encoding speed unless you convert to YUY2 as the last step in the AVS script. With YUY2 conversion, the loss is ~5%.
I think they plan on building M2 (Milestone 2) this Friday, with YV12 no-extra-color-conversion support *)

*) Still has to swap chroma planes (U and V) to get from YV12 to I420. I would like to remove even this step and swap pointers inside the codec instead, but have not had time. I measured the potential speed improvement though, and it's really really minor.
