Freeze Frame with the Video IP Suite

Has anyone determined how to do a Freeze Frame using the Video IP Suite? Can I use the GO bit in the Frame Buffer or is there another way to Freeze the video stream and keep a clean frame of video on...

"...frame buffer will repeat on a partial frame rather than the last complete frame."

Just to make sure there is no misunderstanding here, the frame buffer will repeat a partial frame IF the last thing it received before stopping was a partial frame (ie, early end of packet in most cases). Setting the Go bit to 0 does not stop the frame buffer on the spot and it will continue until the current frame is finished. If this frame is a complete frame then the Freeze frame feature will work as expected.
