[FFmpeg-devel] [PATCH 8/9] avcodec/videotoolbox: use decode_params to propagate PPS changes and restart on SPS changes

From: Aman Gupta <aman at tmm1.net>

If the VideoToolbox session needs to be restarted, and
videotoolbox_start() fails for some reason (for instance, if the video
is interlaced and the decoder is running on iOS), avcodec will return
AVERROR_EXTERNAL. This can be used by the API user to switch to another
decoder.
