AW: vaapih264dec - latency

[Weber, Holger]

Sorry my fault. I looked into the wrong file. Everything is working as expected and low latency is now working!
But I guess the my "I-Frame" patch is not correct. Has somebody an idea how to fix this the right way?

Regards

Betreff: AW: vaapih264dec - latency

I upgraded to the master version which has the suggested "low-latency" flag.
But because of the massive code changes I don't know how I can get it running again.
It is waiting for the I-Frame which will never come.... 

Any suggestions where the frames are dropped?

Regards

Have you tried with the new vaapih264dec's 'low-latency' property in master?

Some decoders collect some frames and reorder them. In this case the encoder does no reordering because for low latency but the decoder seem to collect the frames.
