[FFmpeg-devel] [PATCH 00/10] crystalhd: Move to new decode API

[Philip Langdale]

The CrystalHD hardware decoder is an excellent example of something that was
ill-suited to the old 1:1 decode API. I had to put in a ton of fragile
heuristics and sleep()s to make it mostly work.

By switching to the new m:n decode API, all that crap can get tossed out,
and things actually look sane now.

Obviously, switching to the new API while dropping support for the old one
is an incompatible change, but the decoder functionality with the old API
was so fragile that it just isn't worth maintaing - and obviously, retaining
support for the old API means keeping all the hacks, so we'd gain nothing.

Philip Langdale (10):
  crystalhd: Fix up the missing first sample
  crystalhd: Switch to new decode API and remove the insanity
  crystalhd: Revert back to letting hardware handle packed b-frames
  crystalhd: Remove trust_interlaced heuristic
  crystalhd: We don't need the track the last picture number anymore
  crystalhd: Remove h.264 parser
  crystalhd: Keep NOPTS_VALUE so we know it's not there.
  crystalhd: Loop for a frame internally where possible.
  crystalhd: Simplify output frame handling
  crystalhd: Update high level description
