Test if create_vdp_decoder() might succeed by calling it from config() with a small value for max_reference_frames. This does not make automatic recovery by using software decoder possible, but lets MPlayer fail more graciously on - actually existing - buggy hardware that does not support certain H264 widths when using hardware accelerated decoding (784, 864, 944, 1024, 1808, 1888 pixels on NVIDIA G98) and if the user tries to hardware-decode more samples at the same time than supported. Might break playback of H264 Intra-Only samples on hardware with very little video memory.

MPlayer was originally written by Árpád Gereöffy and has been extended and
worked on by many more since then, see the AUTHORS file for an (incomplete)
