The patches regarding stateful decoders are fine by me. To nitpick, I would maybe rename V4L2_FMT_FLAG_HAS_BITSTREAM_PARSER to something such as: - V4L2_FMT_FLAG_FLEXIBLE_BITSTREAM_PARSER - V4L2_FMT_FLAG_PERMISSIVE_BITSTREAM_PARSER Since by definition a stateful decoder is able to parse the bitstream, it could be a bit confusing to see a format without V4L2_FMT_FLAG_HAS_BITSTREAM_PARSER, something actually quite common. But it is all well explained in the format documentation (patch 11/14) and is of low-ish importance, so I don't really mind either. Maxime
