As mentioned in this cover letter the full fluster report can be found
at [3], and has links to the trees used to produce the raw report data,
have now also added some more details of versions used.
The tests from the report was running on a RK3399 Rock Pi 4B v1.5.
- Linux: 6.17-rc1 + patches
- fluster: 0.4.1 + patch
- FFmpeg: 7.1.1 + patches
- GStreamer: 1.27.1
JCT-VC-HEVC_V1 on GStreamer-H.265-V4L2SL-Gst1.0:
- DBLK_D_VIXS_2 (fail)
- DSLICE_A_HHI_5 (fail)
- EXT_A_ericsson_4 (fail)
- PICSIZE_A_Bossen_1 (error)
- PICSIZE_B_Bossen_1 (error)
- PICSIZE_C_Bossen_1 (error)
- PICSIZE_D_Bossen_1 (error)
- SAODBLK_A_MainConcept_4 (fail)
- SAODBLK_B_MainConcept_4 (fail)
- TSUNEQBD_A_MAIN10_Technicolor_2 (error)
JCT-VC-HEVC_V1 on FFmpeg-H.265-v4l2request:
- CONFWIN_A_Sony_1 (fail)
- EXT_A_ericsson_4 (fail)
- PICSIZE_A_Bossen_1 (error)
- PICSIZE_B_Bossen_1 (error)
- PICSIZE_C_Bossen_1 (error)
- PICSIZE_D_Bossen_1 (error)
- SAODBLK_A_MainConcept_4 (fail)
- SAODBLK_B_MainConcept_4 (fail)
- TSUNEQBD_A_MAIN10_Technicolor_2 (error)
- VPSSPSPPS_A_MainConcept_1 (error)
The WPP_*_ericsson_MAIN* samples get a mixed Fail/Success when running
the full test suite for FFmpeg-H.265-v4l2request, however retrying them
individually they will eventually report Success. Not sure this is an
issue with FFmpeg or the driver, since they pass with GStreamer.
Interesting that DBLK_D_VIXS_2, DSLICE_A_HHI_5 and CONFWIN_A_Sony_1
consistently differs between GStreamer and FFmpeg.

Following is the FFmpeg-H.265-v4l2request result with this:
- JCT-VC-MV-HEVC 9/9
- JCT-VC-RExt 2/49
- JCT-VC-SCC 0/15
- JCT-VC-3D-HEVC 27/27
- JCT-VC-SHVC 1/69
