libavcodec/libx264.c and libavcodec/qsvenc_h264.c both support a -a53cc 1 option where the caption data is copied to the encoded output. I'm trying to figure out how to pass extra SEI payloads to videotoolbox in a similar fashion so we can implement the equivalent option.

I have an initial patch at http://paste.ubuntu.com/23149072/ which generates an h264 encoded file with SEI NAL units. However when I try to decode the file, I see the following warnings:

[h264 @ 0x7f82ea801a00] SEI type 4 size 568 truncated at 567

Can you provide some media samples with closed captions?
