Parsing in the video decoder currently seems (over)complicated, particularly
when considering that even BaseParse basically gets by with a single call
(handle_frame).  As such, either a (even more) simplified version (such as in
the audio classes) should suffice or only using the current parse_data (and
drop the mask stuff and scan_for_sync, not even sure how that one can do any
scanning these days if it does not have access to the data/adapter).
