How about sequence numbers then? Shouldn't that be also copied? If you're interested in the order alone, comparing the sequence numbers is a better way to figure out the order. That does require strict one-to-one mapping between the output and capture buffers, though, and that does not help in knowing when it might be a good time to display a frame, for instance. -- Sakari Ailus e-mail: sakari.ai...@iki.fi XMPP: sai...@retiisi.org.uk -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-media" in the body of a message to majord...@vger.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
