the issue iam looking at is due to

SEI_FUNC(sei_pic_timing, (CodedBitstreamContext *ctx, RWContext *rw, H264RawSEIPicTiming *current, SEIMessageState *sei))

having different active SPS on writing than reading, so the write code
has nal_hrd_parameters_present_flag set while the read had that 0
so uninitialized data is written

I cannot find any match for "cbs" in MAINTAINERS, also there are no copyright
with names in the cbs code.

thx
