Yes, it is.

It's different thing. I tried using that, but image wasn't decoded correctly. 
IMO this is also the same reason why VAAPI doesn't have indices to DPB and 
instead have full VAPictureH264 structure array for RefPicList0 and 
RefPicList1. VAAPI has also note here "/* See 8.2.4.2 */" but I need to check 
it...
