Does H.264 Decoder support NAL stream decoding?

NAL stream decoding is supported. While using the decoder in NAL stream mode, NAL unit data of one complete frame should be accumulated and then passed to decoder with the information about number of NAL units in the frame, length of each NAL unit. Correct Error code is not returned along with output buffer in NAL stream mode. What is the reason for this behaviour? (v.1.30.000.12 or earlier). In case of NAL stream mode of decoding, if a bit-stream error is found decoder would return from the process call with the correct error code. But the output buffer would be returned only in the next process call after more data is available. The error code was not carried forward in this case and the output buffer may contain corrupted picture though the error code would indicate no error. This issue was resolved in v.1.30.000.13, the correct error code is now sent with the output buffer.
