Subject: [PATCH 05/10] staging: media: cedrus: mpeg2: derive the field order of field pictures
Date: Mon, 2 Nov 2026 18:02:58 +0100 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20261102170303.1973892-6-jernej.skrabec@gmail.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20261102170303.1973892-1-jernej.skrabec@gmail.com>
The hardware uses the top field first bit of the picture header to tell
the first field of a frame from the second one. However,
top_field_first is always 0 in field pictures, so userspace passes
V4L2_MPEG2_PIC_FLAG_TOP_FIELD_FIRST cleared, and the second field of
every top field first pair is predicted from the wrong reference.
Detect the second field in the driver instead: it has the opposite
parity of the previous field and is decoded into the same capture
buffer. This works with unmodified userspace.
Fixes: 50e761516f2b ("media: platform: Add Cedrus VPU decoder driver")
