Hi Deepika,
I've got the basic idea of it working now.

For MPEG-2 Video it is relatively simple as you can just append the user
data structure to the end of the frame data.  It looks like: 0x000001b2
[user data] 0x000001

For H.264 you must construct a NAL type 6 containing a SEI message:
0x00000106 [SEI message starting with payload type] 0x00 [payload size] 0x80

This gets inserted into the packet after any other SEI messages but before
the first video slice, so you have to parse the NALs in the frame data to
find the insertion point.

Hope this helps,
Jason
