In bug 1294552, we're getting errors because frames are tagged as keyframes when they are not. This is okay if you play the stream from 0. But when seeking, this will cause decoding errors. We've also often seen cases where mp4 container have all their frames tagged as keyframes causing playback error when seeking. For non-encrypted content, we could simply scan the h264 data header and determine there the frame type (I, P or B frame)... It should be fairly trivial and would be much more reliable than trusting the mp4 container. We've already stopped trusting the container for determining the video dimensions and aspect ratio. Not trusting the keyframe marking isn't a stretch.
Additionally, it would make much easier the reporting of content incorrectly marked as keyframe, and notify the JS/Console

ByteReader prevents ever reading outside of the provided boundaries. ByteReader::Reader will return null if there's not enough data available.

Comment on attachment 8787967 [details] Bug 1300296: P2. Don't rely on MP4 container to properly report if a frame is a keyframe. https://reviewboard.mozilla.org/r/76526/#review74906 With this patch we take the sample and modify it in two differnet ways. It would be easy to make a mistake about which fields have been updated. It would be much simpler to replace mIterator->GetNext() universally with GetNextSampleInternal() that looks something like this: MediaRawSample* GetNextSampleInternal() { MediaRawSample* sample = mIterator->GetNext(); if (!sample) { return nullptr; } if (IsIncorrectlyMarkedAsKeyframe(sample)) { NS_WARNING(nsPrintfCString("Frame incorrectly marked as keyframe @ pts:%lld dur:%u dts:%lld", aSample->mTime, aSample->mDuration, aSample->mTimecode).get()); aSample->mKeyframe = false; } if (sample->mCrypto.mValid) { nsAutoPtr<MediaRawDataWriter> writer(sample->CreateWriter()); writer->mCrypto.mMode = mInfo->mCrypto.mMode; writer->mCrypto.mIVSize = mInfo->mCrypto.mIVSize; writer->mCrypto.mKeyId.AppendElements(mInfo->mCrypto.mKeyId); } return sample; } We can get rid of the SPS telemetry. The SetNextKeyFrameTime() logic would have to live somewhere else. It doesn't really make sense where it is anyway. ::: dom/media/fmp4/MP4Demuxer.cpp:347 (Diff revision 2) > } > > if (samples->mSamples.IsEmpty()) { > return SamplesPromise::CreateAndReject(DemuxerFailureReason::END_OF_STREAM, __func__); > } else { > UpdateSamples(samples->mSamples); UpdateSamples and CheckSample do the same thing.

I want to be able to distinguish three cases, not just "not keyframe" I'll handle the issue where a sample is actually invalid at a later stage.

With AVCC, the NAL is preceded by its size, the size of a NAL is encoded either as 1,2, 3 or 4 bytes. The size of the NAL length is stored in byte 4 of the extradata. Hence checking that size is >= 5.

Hence checking that size is >= 5. forgot to add that the check that mExtraData size is >= 5 is done in the AnnexB::IsAVCC which is return aSample->Size() >= 3 && aSample->mExtraData && aSample->mExtraData->Length() >= 7 && (*aSample->mExtraData)[0] == 1;

P3 causes failure of the video decoding suspend test due to the way the blank decoder is substituted from the original decoder half-way. If this happens in the middle of a GOP, then all frames seen are now dropped because we don't have a starting keyframes... The blank decoder should never be wrapped in a H264Converter
