| * MetadataBufferType defines the type of the metadata buffers that |
| * can be passed to video encoder component for encoding, via Stagefright |
| * media recording framework. To see how to work with the metadata buffers |
| * in media recording framework, please consult HardwareAPI.h |
| * |
| * The creator of metadata buffers and video encoder share common knowledge |
| * on what is actually being stored in these metadata buffers, and |
| * how the information can be used by the video encoder component |
| * to locate the actual pixel data as the source input for video |
| * encoder, plus whatever other information that is necessary. Stagefright |
| * media recording framework does not need to know anything specific about the |
| * metadata buffers, except for receving each individual metadata buffer |
| * as the source input, making a copy of the metadata buffer, and passing the |
| * copy via OpenMAX API to the video encoder component. |
| * |
| * The creator of the metadata buffers must ensure that the first |
| * 4 bytes in every metadata buffer indicates its buffer type, |
| * and the rest of the metadata buffer contains the |
| * actual metadata information. When a video encoder component receives |
| * a metadata buffer, it uses the first 4 bytes in that buffer to find |
| * out the type of the metadata buffer, and takes action appropriate |
| * to that type of metadata buffers (for instance, locate the actual |
| * pixel data input and then encoding the input data to produce a |
| * compressed output buffer). |
| * |
| * The following shows the layout of a metadata buffer, |
| * where buffer type is a 4-byte field of MetadataBufferType, |
| * and the payload is the metadata information. |
