First of all... you could have a more granular control if you wrote
your wrapped your decoder directly as a gstreamer element (instead of
going through another abstraction layer like (gst-)ffmpeg). If you
already have a convenience library to acces your hw (which I hope you
have), then it's rather trivial (there's plenty of examples of decoder
plugins out there).
That being said... in order to have direct rendering, your AVCodec
needs to expose the fact that it can (AVCodec->capabilities &
CODEC_CAP_DR1).
If that is set, then there should be no memcpy, since gstffmpegdec
will request a buffer from downstream (your sink) and write straight to
it instead of doing an extra copy.
