  * Hardware frames context for GPU memory management.
  *
- * Manages pools of hardware frames for efficient GPU memory allocation.
- * Handles format conversions and data transfers between CPU and GPU memory.
- * Required for hardware-accelerated video processing pipelines.
+ * Manages pools of hardware frames (textures/surfaces) on the GPU.
+ * Essential for zero-copy hardware acceleration, allowing frames to stay
+ * in GPU memory throughout the processing pipeline. Provides frame allocation,
+ * format conversion, and data transfer between hardware and system memory.
  *
