Until your message, I thought there was only two variants of H.264 packets,
but it seems the situation is more complex than that: three, four variants?

Could you sum-up this quickly? List all the variants, indicate in what
circumstances they are possible / necessary, how the encoder selects the
variant and what is the effect of the bitstream filters?
