* For encoding, this is the number of "priming" samples added to the
* beginning of the stream. The decoded output will be delayed by this
* many samples relative to the input to the encoder. Note that this
* field is purely informational and does not directly affect the pts
* output by the encoder, which should always be based on the actual
* presentation time, including any delay.
* For encoding, this is the number of "priming" samples added by the
* encoder to the beginning of the stream. The decoded output will be
* delayed by this many samples relative to the input to the encoder (or
* more, if the decoder adds its own padding).
* The timestamps on the output packets are adjusted by the encoder so
* that they always refer to the first sample of the data actually
* contained in the packet, including any added padding.
* E.g. if the timebase is 1/samplerate and the timestamp of the first
* input sample is 0, the timestamp of the first output packet will be
* -delay.

* For decoding, this is the number of samples the decoder needs to
* output before the decoder's output is valid. When seeking, you should
* start decoding this many samples prior to your desired seek point.
