Description

Hi Im am trying to decode a 1080 P H264 video stream from a camera with VDPAU (NVIDIA driver version 260.19.04) / FFMPeg as the input demuxer/NALU parser. I am seeing the message below while decoding. The camera sends out slightly larger height frames than 1080 (1084). And I repeatedly get these messages about every second:

Last message repeated 1 times
[h264_vdpau @ 0x7f210c46df30]insane cropping not completely supported, this could look slightly wrong ...
[h264_vdpau @ 0x7f210c46df30]no frame!

I believe this happens during SPS/PPS parsing.
I captured some raw H.264 bitstream in a file and uploaded at http://www.datafilehost.com/download-f537c855.html. Its interesting that when this video stream is wrapped within RTMP packets and submitted to flash, flash player plays it fine - with no extra 4 bytes at the top and no signs of hiccups. The parser seems to cause latency issues when this happens (stuck for couple of seconds).

This was fixed by Vittorio Giovara, and works fine now with ffmpeg and ffplay (and mplayer -vc ffh264).

It does not work correctly with mplayer -vc ffh264vdpau, I don't know if that is a limitation of MPlayer or libavcodec.
