Double check the patch "[media] mem2mem: add support for hardware buffered queue". This patch make m2m framework could support that 1. out-of-order frames, causing a few mem2mem device runs in the beginning, that don't produce any decompressed buffer at the v4l2 capture side. 2. the last few frames can be decoded from the bitstream with mem2mem device runs that don't need a new input buffer at the v4l2 output side. This is similar our requirement that we want start decode without CAPTURE buffer. Is there any restriction that when v4l2_m2m_set_src_buffered can be used? best regards, Tiffany > 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
