Keiichi, have you looked at the spec?
I think it is useful to have a single device specification for all video
functions given that there is a bunch of common stuff. Both encoder and
decoder must negotiate video frame and video stream parameters for
example. Also the virtio-video spec looks like a superset of
virtio-vdec.
Is there any important feature in video-vdec which is missing in
virtio-video?

Can you give a quick summary on buffer object management?
