VENC frame sequence inquiry

It appears that some sources of H.264 can emit frames out of sequence, and it is the responsibility of the decoder to handle this (within reason).

My question is regarding the H.264 encoder in the DVRRDK  (Version 3.0 in particular)

Does the TI encoder emit H.264 frames in chronological sequence (i.e. with only increasing timestamps)

  • Frames will come out of order from the encoder only if B-frame encoding is enabled. All DVR RDK versions upto RDK 4.0 do not support B-frame encoding so you will receive frames out of the encoder in chrnological order. The next DVR RDK release will support B-frame encoding although it is not relevant to this discussion.
