Great, thanks for the test.

You mean it will not try to set those controls for
DECODE_MODE_FRAME_BASED?
I think that's correct, as we've discussed multiple times,
frame-based drivers shouldn't need to use those controls,
by definition.

If a driver supporting DECODE_MODE_SLICE_BASED doesn't
support SLICE_PARAMS, that can probably be considered
a failure from the application side.
If it doesn't support PRED_WEIGHTS controls, then
strictly speaking it won't be able to decode slices
that have a prediction weight table, i.e.:
((weighted_pred_flag && (slice_type == P || slice_type == SP)) || \
(weighted_bipred_idc == 1 && slice_type == B))
I doubt we'll ever counter such case, so probably
if the controls aren't supported, applications
can just safely fail (and e.g. fallback to software).
