/**
 * Decodes a video frame from \p buf into \p picture.
 * The avcodec_decode_video() function decodes a video frame from the input
 * buffer \p buf of size \p buf_size. To decode it, it makes use of the
 * video codec which was coupled with \p avctx using avcodec_open(). The
 * resulting decoded frame is stored in \p picture.
 *
 * @warning The input buffer must be \c FF_INPUT_BUFFER_PADDING_SIZE larger than
 * the actual read bytes because some optimized bitstream readers read 32 or 64
 * bits at once and could read over the end.
 *
 * @warning The end of the input buffer \p buf should be set to 0 to ensure that
 * no overreading happens for damaged MPEG streams.
 *
 * @note You might have to align the input buffer \p buf and output buffer \p
 * samples. The alignment requirements depend on the CPU: on some CPUs it isn't
 * necessary at all, on others it won't work at all if not aligned and on others
 * it will work but it will have an impact on performance. In practice, the
 * bitstream should have 4 byte alignment at minimum and all sample data should
 * be 16 byte aligned unless the CPU doesn't need it (AltiVec and SSE do). If
 * the linesize is not a multiple of 16 then there's no sense in aligning the
 * start of the buffer to 16.
 *
 * @param avctx the codec context
 * @param[out] picture The AVFrame in which the decoded video frame will be stored.
 * @param[in] buf the input buffer
 * @param[in] buf_size the size of the input buffer in bytes
 * @param[in,out] got_picture_ptr Zero if no frame could be decompressed, otherwise, it is nonzero.
 * @return On error a negative value is returned, otherwise the number of bytes
 * used or zero if no frame could be decompressed.
