[Libav-user] H264 live stream decoding and got_picture_ptr

Hi,
	That's what I'm doing, it's just that I'd like to know the conditions are that cause the got_picture_ptr to be zero. If I get a succession of frames with no valid got_picture_ptr then effectively my decoding stream stalls until I get a valid picture again. I'm assuming that it's ultimately loss of data that causes the issues? If this is the case then there's not much I can do about it, which is fine.

Thanks,

Tony.
