My work product submission for GSoC 2017

This is a copy from my blog post in https://orestisfl.github.io/GSoC-Work-Product/

Work done

With my gstreamer-vaapi patches, the vaapih264dec plugin can perform the hardware accelerated decoding of H264 MVC / SVC streams even if there is no hardware support for the stream's profile. This can be done by enabling the base-only property of the element which will make vaapih264dec drop the non-base view frames. This should make all SVC streams at least playable, something that vaapih264dec, and most well-known open source media player applications, didn't support so far.

My patches for h264parse add a similar feature:

    if focused['id'] in mpv_ids:

        prev_idx = (idx + 1) % len(mpv_ids)
