[libav-devel] [PATCH] libopenh264dec: Use a newer decoding entry point function
The "new" entry point actually has existed since OpenH264 1.4 in
2015, but with B-frames, this entry point is essential for actually
getting the right frames returned and reordered.
The name of this function, DecodeFrameNoDelay, is rather backwards
considering that it doesn't return the latest decoded frame immediately,
but actually does proper delaying and reordering of frames, but
it's the recommended decoding entry point.
