Sure, doing A does not mean you cannot do B anymore. This is just an
offer to give you one more option. Adding it is almost trivial and
non-intrusive,
but it's your decision whether this gives you any benefit. OpenHEVC sure
did great work and the implementation is rather similar as I can see.

Anyways, you may want to cherry-pick the h265 raw format testing code
for libavformat, which is non-existent in the OpenHEVC code so far.
