Nice patch, but i'm utterly confused.

1. you should clarify now that 'metadata' stream means an only info packets 
   stream, and not some other random metadata.
2. since info packets are now literal frames in streams, you can have 
   multiple info streams? they have pts's and their own time base? they 
   should all be marked as key frames? (doesn't really matter).
3. why do we still need info_startcode? it can be removed.
4. what do you mean by pts difference of zero? it's identical to the 
   stream's "last_pts"? why not just use '0'? it makes more sense (they are 
   at the begginning, apply globally, sound like '0' to me).
5. do these streams deserve an index?...
