+/**
+ * Video decoder interface.
+ *
+ * Typical usage:
+ * - Call Create() to create a new video decoder resource.
+ * - Call Initialize() to initialize it with a 3d graphics context and the
+ *   desired codec profile.
+ * - Call Decode() to send a bitstream buffer to the decoder.
+ * - Call GetPicture() to get the next decoded picture.
+ * - Call Flush() to signal end of stream to the decoder and perform shutdown
+ *   when it completes.
+ * - To reset the decoder (e.g. to implement Seek), call Reset() and wait for
+ *   the callback.
+ * - To destroy the decoder, the plugin should release all of its references to
+ *   it. To avoid receiving aborted callbacks, call Flush() and wait for
+ *   completion first.
