Membrane H.264 and H.265 parsers.
It is a pair of Membrane elements responsible for parsing the incoming H.264 and H.265 streams. The parsing is done as a sequence of the following steps:
* splitting the stream into stream NAL units
* Parsing the NAL unit headers, so that to read the type of the NAL unit
* Parsing the NAL unit body with the appropriate scheme, based on the NAL unit type read in the step before
* Aggregating the NAL units into a stream of *access units*

The output of the element is the incoming binary payload, enriched with the metadata describing the division of the payload into *access units*.

It is part of [Membrane Multimedia Framework](https://membraneframework.org).

## Installation

The package can be installed by adding `membrane_h26x_plugin` to your list of dependencies in `mix.exs`:

```elixir
def deps do
[
{:membrane_h26x_plugin, "~> 0.10.2"}
]
end
```

## Usage

The following pipeline takes H264 file, parses it, and then decodes it to the raw video.

```elixir
defmodule Decoding.Pipeline do
use Membrane.Pipeline

alias Membrane.{File, H264}

@impl true
def handle_init(_ctx, _opts) do
spec =
child(:source, %File.Source{location: "test/fixtures/input-10-720p-main.h264"})
|> child(:parser, H264.Parser)
|> child(:decoder, H264.FFmpeg.Decoder)
|> child(:sink, %File.Sink{location: "output.raw"})

{[spec: spec], nil}
end

@impl true
def handle_element_end_of_stream(:sink, _ctx_, state) do
{[terminate: :normal], state}
end
end
```
