/*
 * DISCUSSION : How to Write an efficient Frame-Dropping Algorithm
 * ==========
 *
 * This implementation is based on mathematical and statistical
 * developments. Older implementations used an enslavement, considering
 * that if we're late when reading an I picture, we will decode one frame
 * less. It had a tendency to derive, and wasn't responsive enough, which
 * would have caused trouble with the stream control stuff.
 *
 * 1. Structure of a picture stream
 *    =============================
 * Between 2 I's, we have for instance :
 *    I   B   P   B   P   B   P   B   P   B   P   B   I
 *    t0  t1  t2  t3  t4  t5  t6  t7  t8  t9  t10 t11 t12
 * Please bear in mind that B's and IP's will be inverted when displaying
 * (decoding order != presentation order). Thus, t1 < t0.
 *
 * 2. Definitions
 *    ===========
 * t[0..12]     : Presentation timestamps of pictures 0..12.
 * t            : Current timestamp, at the moment of the decoding.
 * T            : Picture period, T = 1/frame_rate.
 * tau[I,P,B]   : Mean time to decode an [I,P,B] picture.
 * tauYUV       : Mean time to render a picture (given by the video_output).
 * tau´[I,P,B] = 2 * tau[I,P,B] + tauYUV
 *              : Mean time + typical difference (estimated to tau/2, that
 *                needs to be confirmed) + render time.
 * DELTA        : A given error margin.
 *
 * 3. General considerations
 *    ======================
 * We define three types of machines :
 *      14T > tauI : machines capable of decoding all I pictures
 *      2T > tauP  : machines capable of decoding all P pictures
 *      T > tauB   : machines capable of decoding all B pictures
 *
 * 4. Decoding of an I picture
 *    ========================
 * On fast machines, we decode all I's.
 * Otherwise :
 * We can decode an I picture if we simply have enough time to decode it
 * before displaying :
 *      t0 - t > tau´I + DELTA
 *
 * 5. Decoding of a P picture
 *    =======================
 * On fast machines, we decode all P's.
 * Otherwise :
 * First criterion : have time to decode it.
 *      t2 - t > tau´P + DELTA
 *
 * Second criterion : it shouldn't prevent us from displaying the forthcoming
 * I picture, which is more important.
 *      t12 - t > tau´P + tau´I + DELTA
 *
 * 6. Decoding of a B picture
 *    =======================
 * On fast machines, we decode all B's. Otherwise :
 *      t1 - t > tau´B + DELTA
 * Since the next displayed I or P is already decoded, we don't have to
 * worry about it.
 *
 * I hope you will have a pleasant flight and do not forget your life
 * jacket.
