+Subject: [PATCH] [rbp] Avoid blocking the video thread keeping the video fifo
+ full. OpenMAX IL is an asynchronous media player. The key
+ to getting good performance is to ensure the audio and
+ video fifo have sufficient data to withstand any processing
+ spikes by the ARM. Ideally the fifos would allow the arm to
+ crash, and video and audio playback to continue smoothly
+ for a couple of seconds.
+
+I've examined the fifo behaviour, and found the video fifo is always almost empty. (The audio fifo is full).
+It turns out that the PlayerVideo task (which submits video frames to GPU fifo) blocks until the presentation time has arrived before calling FlipPage (in order to keep subtitles etc. synced).
+This is very bad. We generally only one frame of video data in the GPU fifo. This means a spike in ARM workload (e.g. bringing up OSD, or a peak in bitrate) causes the fifo to empty and video to stutter.
+
+The patch here avoids blocking, and lets the FlipPage happen on a later packet.
+I've found with this patch, my test clip (1080p with software DTS audio decode) I can play without stuttering at 700MHz. Without this patch it fails to play even at 1000MHz.
