We had a discussion on this in v2. I don't remember seeing any conclusion.

Obviously the hardware should generate a keyframe naturally when the
CAPTURE streaming starts, which is where the encoding starts, but the
state of the OUTPUT queue should not affect this.

The application is free to stop and start streaming on the OUTPUT
queue as it goes and it shouldn't imply any side effects in the
encoded bitstream (e.g. a keyframe inserted). So:
- a sequence of STREAMOFF(OUTPUT),
S_CTRL(V4L2_CID_MPEG_VIDEO_FORCE_KEY_FRAME), STREAMON(OUTPUT) should
explicitly generate a keyframe,
- a sequence of STREAMOFF(OUTPUT), STREAMON(OUTPUT) should _not_
explicitly generate a keyframe (the hardware may generate one, if the
periodic keyframe counter is active or a scene detection algorithm
decides so).

Please refer to the specification (v2 is the latest for the time being
-> https://lore.kernel.org/patchwork/patch/1002476/) for further
details and feel free to leave any comment for it.

Best regards,
Tomasz

Gentle reminder!!

Stan, please provide your view on this.

Thanks,
Malathi.
