msb_timestamp_flag
	indicates that the msb_timestamp is coded
	MUST be 1 for keyframes
        
msb_timestamp
	most significant bits of the timestamp, SHOULD be 0 for the first frame
 
lsb_timestamp
	most significant bits of the timestamp in time_base precission, with 

        
priority
	if 0 then the frame isnt used as reference (b frame) and can be droped
	MUST be > 0 for keyframes

sub_packet_size
	size of an audio packet
	Note a subpacket MUST be in exactly one packet, it cannot be split

shuffle_type
	audio is often encoded in small fixed size packets, and to increase the
	error robustness these can be shuffled
	0 -> no shuffle
	1-16 -> interleave packets by 2^n

msb_timestamp_flag
	indicates that the msb_timestamp is coded
	MUST be 1 for keyframes
        
subpacket_type
	00	1		subpacket per packet (normally used for video)
	01	subpacket_count	fixed length subpackets per packet
	10	subpacket_count	variable length subpackets per packet
	11	reserved
	Note, if there are multiple subpackets then the timestamp of the packet
	is the timestamp of the first subpacket
	Note, if multiple subpackets are stored in one frame then the resulting
	framesize SHOULD be < 16kbyte and not more then 0.5 sec of data SHOULD
	be put in a single packet

subpacket_base_size
	the size of the subpackets for fixed fize subpackets
	an offset which should be added to the subpacket_size_diff of each 
	subpacket to get the actual size, so its normally the size of the 
	smallest subpacket

subpacket_count
	the number of subpackets, if not pressent then 1

subpacket_size_diff
	the (allways positive) difference from the subpacket_base_size to the
	actual size of the current subpacket, if its not coded 
	(subpacket_type != 10) then its 0
	Note a subpacket MUST be in exactly one packet, it cannot be split
       
msb_timestamp
	most significant bits of the timestamp, SHOULD be 0 for the first frame
 
lsb_timestamp
	most significant bits of the timestamp in time_base precission, with 

        
priority
	if 0 then the frame isnt used as reference (b frame) and can be droped
	MUST be > 0 for keyframes

shuffle_type
	audio is often encoded in small subpackets, and to increase the
	error robustness these can be shuffled
	0 -> no shuffle
	1-16 -> interleave packets by 2^n
