Please understand that I was working on this on and off for almost half a year and checked many times all register values. At one point I tried libvdpau- sunxi which has no problem with sample video. Still, all relevant register values were the same. In a desperate attempt, I tried with HW header parsing which magically solved the issue. After that, I reused values provided in controls and then finally I made minimal solution as suggested in this patch. > > I could try and have a look if you have an available sample for testing the > erroneous case!

I didn't notice any issue with it. Do you have any better idea? I just didn't want to make empty loop and udelay is the shortest delay that is provided by the kernel API.
