If you try this patch with the sample i linked, you'll see the SEI is
parsed and shown.

Ah, that would explain why trace_headers didn't show them.

CBS should probably stop using h2645_parse functions then, and duplicate
its functionality. I'd rather not change h2645_parse for this and risk
unpredictable behavior from the decoder.

Ok, will remove the check.

Will change.
