+ Specifies a priority identifier for the NAL unit, which will be applied to
+ the base layer. By default this value is set to 0 for the base layer,
+ and the next layer will have the priority ID assigned as 1, 2, 3 and so on.
+ The video encoder can't decide the priority id to be applied to a layer,
+ so this has to come from client.
+ This is applicable to H264 and valid Range is from 0 to 63.
