i'm trying to set up a PR as we speak. only issue i'm having is i'm very new to git. i am a bit confused with something.
ok when i first used this patch i just made a diff patch of the one specific commit for global av delay, but now that diff patch no longer works which i understand is because of it being a stright byte for byte diff patch so i did a fetch of a1599s repo and then merged that commit, or so i thought, everyhing works but when i look at my log there are two other commits that came with the merge (even though i thought i chose one specific one?, or is that what cherry picking is for?) about mastraka timestamps and demuxing or something. now i know from using the diff patch these two commits are NOT needed. so i really dont want to change code i dont have to so what i'm asking is are those parent commits and because i used a diff patch they werent including and if so do i need them and if not how to remove them?
