The handling of EOS and draining is ill defined in V4L2 specification. We should be clarifying this soon. Currently GStreamer implements what was originally done in Exynos MFC driver. This consist of sending empty buffer to the V4L2 Output (the input), until we get an empty buffer (bytesused = 0) on the V4L2 Capture (output). The CODA driver uses the new method to initiate the drain, which is to send V4L2_DEC_CMD_STOP, this was not implemented by any driver when GST v4l2 support was added. This is the right thing to do. This is tracked at (contribution welcome of course): https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=733864 Finally, CODA indicate that all buffer has been sent through an event, V4L2_EVENT_EOS. This event was designed for another use case, it should in fact be sent when the decoder is done with the encoded buffers, rather then when the last decoded buffer has been queued. When correctly implemented, this event cannot be used to figure-out when the last decoded buffer has been dequeued. During last workshop, it has been proposed to introduce a flag on the last decoded buffer, _LAST. This flag could also be put on an empty buffer to accommodate driver like MFC that only know it's EOS after the last buffer has been delivered. This all need to be SPECed and implemented. If you need to get that to run now, the easiest might be to hack CODA to mimic MFC behavior. Implement DEC_CMD_STOP in GStreamer shall not be very hard though, it simply need someone to do it. cheers, Nicolas -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-media" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
