Sotaro - Can you investigate?
Flags: needinfo?(sotaro.ikeda.g)
Yeah, I am going to investigate the problem. It seems that the fence delivery seems broken.

Flags: needinfo?(sotaro.ikeda.g)
I confirmed that the problem happens on v1.4 flame and master flame.
valid fence objects are delivered to OMXCodec.
(In reply to Sotaro Ikeda [:sotaro] from comment #7) > I confirmed that the problem happens on v1.4 flame and master flame. Correction: Sorry, I confirmed only on v1.4 flame.
(In reply to Sotaro Ikeda [:sotaro] from comment #8) > valid fence objects are delivered to OMXCodec. It was incorrect. valid fence objects are not delivered to OMXCodec.
This bug fix need to be based on bug 1016805 fix. It also fixes similar problem. The bug seems to be caused by patches uplift to b2g v1.4 like Bug 1006957. The patches are created for masetr. Between master and v1.4, Bug 985772 is big difference. It is not uplifted to b2g v1.4. The change does not add new capability to gecko and the patch is very big to uplift.
Depends on: 1016805
By Bug 1006957, fence send from compositor side to client side becomes async. client side's fence delivery wait also needs to be changed to async by using AsyncTransactionTracker even when RecycleCallback is not set to TextureClient.
The patch is based on Bug 1016805 fix. Confirmed that the patch fixed the HD video's flicker problem on v1.4 flame.
