completely ordinary video sources.
``cuda`` is usually safe. However, it will usually not fallback cleanly
for unsupported profiles of otherwise supported codecs - most obviously,

supported but we can add support after CUDA 8 is released.
All other methods, in particular the copy-back methods (like
``dxva2-copy`` etc.) are either fully safe, or not worse than software
decoding. In particular, ``auto-copy`` will only select safe modes
