I think part of the manual request completion RFC will be to evaluate the impact
on VB2_V4L2_FL_SUPPORTS_M2M_HOLD_CAPTURE_BUF feature. MTK does not support
interleaved interlaced decoding (only alternate), so they didn't have to
implement that feature.
Overall, It would be nice to get your feedback on the new manual request
proposal, which is I believe better then the pin/unpin API you have in this
serie.

One thing missing in this summary is how this driver is being validated
(specially that for this one requires a downstream fork of FFMPEG). To this
report we ask for:
- v4l2-compliance results
- Fluster conformance tests results [1] and I believe you need [2]
[1] https://github.com/fluendo/fluster
[2] https://github.com/fluendo/fluster/pull/179
GStreamer support is there in main now, but without the needed software video
converter for you column tiling, we can't use it for that (i.e. only works
through GL or Wayland).

Nicolas
