Not really, H.264 can be in bytestream format and not parsed (raw H.264 data).
I'm not sure if it's possible to have it in AVC format and unparsed; the format
definitely wasn't intended to be used that way, but I think it's possible.

If you are referring to the slice mode proposal, AFAIK it's defined in the
H.264 spec and we will definitely be pushing for that in Maemo 6.

Oh but they do: decoders out there don't work properly when parsed=false.
