What does this HFI_BUFFERFLAG_DROP_FRAME flag mean? When would it
happen? I assume it applies only to CAPTURE buffers, since for OUTPUT
buffers you must not set the bytesuses/timestamp yourself, right? Is
the buffer guaranteed to have no decoded frame inside or the frame
could be there, but incomplete/corrupted?

Best regards,
