37 * and the demux/packetizer implementations.
38 * - i_dts/i_pts could be 0, it means no pts
39 * - i_length: length in microseond of the packet, can be null except in the

43 * - i_buffer number of valid data pointed by p_buffer
44 * you can freely decrease it but never increase it yourself
46 * - p_buffer: pointer over datas. You should never overwrite it, you can
47 * only incremment it to skip datas, in others cases use block_Realloc
