Which others? You have provided no examples. H.264 does not count because they already have startcodes separating the parts.
I'd like to add on top of that, that a NUT framework for multiple headers would greatly _complicate_ the question of how to store sane formats like H.264. Do you store them all as one block separated by the startcodes? Or in N different blocks? If storing them in N different blocks, do you keep the startcodes or strip them?? See how nasty this all gets? Just having one format, the single binary block with a spec for what goes in it, eliminates all the ambiguity and complexity. Rich
