RE: Bug and comments on Smart Copy in Video Pro X

@peter-duke Hi . . . . . According to VideoReDo, the first two frames are B frames followed by an IDR frame (a special I frame) in both cases. Then follow a series of B and P frames (not the same) to complete the GOP before an I frame and so on . .
