Verified that the identifier matches ITU-T H.222 2014/10 (and what's
in mpegts.{c,h}).

Not sure if another part of the specification notes that this should
only be utilized in MPEG-TS, but since we also have the AVC/H.264
identifier in MPEG-PS I would guess it's OK?

In general it seems like at least a few of these identifiers are
shared between both MPEG-2 Systems formats, so we might want to merge
the matching ones into a single shared list.

Best regards,
