What are all the buffering mechanism available in OMX ?
   1.AllocateBuffer - Allocates buffer
   2.UseBuffer - use the buffer given by the downstream component. Example using the video renderer's memory to fill the decoded data

When the input buffer or output buffer of the component should be released?
        Once the OMX input buffer is used and ready to release,  it will return the EMPTY_BUFFER_DONE event to the stagefright or who is owning the buffer. Once the IL client received the EMPTY_BUFFER_DONE event, it can release the input buffer.
     OMX  IL client will receives the FILL_BUFFER_DONE event from OMX component once the output buffer is used and ready to release. Once IL client received the FILL_BUFFER_DONE event, IL client will frees the output buffer.

How Seek operation is executed in Stagefright ?
        Once the application is giving seek, Thru stagefright player, awesome player calls the seek() function.

How seek operation is notified to the parser or Extractor ?
     within Awesomeplayer, SeekTo() fn is called, it will sets the ReadOptions structure values as seek mode set and seek timestamp is also stored in this structure.

     Awesomeplayer while calling decoder, it will  invoke decoder as below

            mVideoSource->read(&decodedBuffer, &readOptions);

This readoptions value is passed to decoder and decoder will have the pointer to the MPEG4/MKV extractor's media source.
       Decoder will invoke read() fn of the audio/video source of the extractor by passing readOptions.

within parser's media source ->read() fn, it will checks whether the seek mode is set or not. if it is set, it will
do seek to seektimestamp through parser.
