[vlc-devel] [PATCH 5/6] video_output/mmal: Request additional filter pictures

[Julian Scheel]

To be able to use mmal based video filters (image_fx) in opaque mode we need
to provide them at least 20 pictures for output. So request some additional
pictures which will be part of the private_pool used by the image_fx module.
