I'm unhappy with the term 'bus format'. It's too close to 'mediabus format'.
How about calling it "bus protocol"?

How about:

    "It receives video frames on its sink pad from an input video bus
     of one type (HDMI, eDP, MIPI CSI-2, ...), and outputs them on its
     source pad to an output video bus of another type (eDP, MIPI
     CSI-2, parallel, ...)."

That's even better!
