this command does nothing. This command has two flags:
if V4L2_DEC_CMD_STOP_TO_BLACK is set, then the decoder will
set the picture to black after it stopped decoding. Otherwise the last image will
-repeat. If V4L2_DEC_CMD_STOP_IMMEDIATELY is set, then the decoder
+repeat. mem2mem decoders will stop producing new frames altogether. They will send
+a V4L2_EVENT_EOS event when the last frame has been decoded
+and all frames are ready to be dequeued and will set the
+V4L2_BUF_FLAG_LAST buffer flag on the last buffer of the
+capture queue to indicate there will be no new buffers produced to dequeue. This
+buffer may be empty, indicated by the driver setting the
+bytesused field to 0. Once the
+V4L2_BUF_FLAG_LAST flag was set, the
+VIDIOC_DQBUF ioctl will not block anymore,
+but return an &EPIPE;.
+If V4L2_DEC_CMD_STOP_IMMEDIATELY is set, then the decoder
stops immediately (ignoring the pts value), otherwise it
will keep decoding until timestamp >= pts or until the last of the pending data from
its internal buffers was decoded.
