In fact, I would go farther and say that the "right" way to handle codec capability reporting would have to supply the stream itself to the codec. It's unreasonable to expect that the extractor would be able to fully characterize the stream in all possibly relevant ways. This would require some restructuring and is not necessary for R1. Andrew
