-Decoder firmware API description
-================================
-
-Note: this API is part of the decoder firmware, so it's cx23415 only.
-
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
-
-Name CX2341X_DEC_PING_FW
-Enum 0/0x00
-Description
- This API call does nothing. It may be used to check if the firmware
- is responding.
-
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
-
-Name CX2341X_DEC_START_PLAYBACK
-Enum 1/0x01
-Description
- Begin or resume playback.
-Param[0]
- 0 based frame number in GOP to begin playback from.
-Param[1]
- Specifies the number of muted audio frames to play before normal
- audio resumes. (This is not implemented in the firmware, leave at 0)
-
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
-
-Name CX2341X_DEC_STOP_PLAYBACK
-Enum 2/0x02
-Description
- Ends playback and clears all decoder buffers. If PTS is not zero,
- playback stops at specified PTS.
-Param[0]
- Display 0=last frame, 1=black
- Note: this takes effect immediately, so if you want to wait for a PTS,
- then use '0', otherwise the screen goes to black at once.
- You can call this later (even if there is no playback) with a 1 value
- to set the screen to black.
-Param[1]
- PTS low
-Param[2]
- PTS high
-
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
-
-Name CX2341X_DEC_SET_PLAYBACK_SPEED
-Enum 3/0x03
-Description
- Playback stream at speed other than normal. There are two modes of
- operation:
- Smooth: host transfers entire stream and firmware drops unused
- frames.
- Coarse: host drops frames based on indexing as required to achieve
- desired speed.
-Param[0]
- Bitmap:
- 0:7 0 normal
- 1 fast only "1.5 times"
- n nX fast, 1/nX slow
- 30 Framedrop:
- '0' during 1.5 times play, every other B frame is dropped
- '1' during 1.5 times play, stream is unchanged (bitrate
- must not exceed 8mbps)
- 31 Speed:
- '0' slow
- '1' fast
- Note: n is limited to 2. Anything higher does not result in
- faster playback. Instead the host should start dropping frames.
-Param[1]
- Direction: 0=forward, 1=reverse
- Note: to make reverse playback work you have to write full GOPs in
- reverse order.
-Param[2]
- Picture mask:
- 1=I frames
- 3=I, P frames
- 7=I, P, B frames
-Param[3]
- B frames per GOP (for reverse play only)
- Note: for reverse playback the Picture Mask should be set to I or I, P.
- Adding B frames to the mask will result in corrupt video. This field
- has to be set to the correct value in order to keep the timing correct.
-Param[4]
- Mute audio: 0=disable, 1=enable
-Param[5]
- Display 0=frame, 1=field
-Param[6]
- Specifies the number of muted audio frames to play before normal audio
- resumes. (Not implemented in the firmware, leave at 0)
-
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
-
-Name CX2341X_DEC_STEP_VIDEO
-Enum 5/0x05
-Description
- Each call to this API steps the playback to the next unit defined below
- in the current playback direction.
