        This is an uncompressed video stream.  RTP with multiple types of
media is normally handled by sending multiple streams, and synchronizing
via RTCP and timestamps.  If you want to send an MPEG2 transport stream,
that's a different beast.  If you want to define an "uncompressed video
plus audio" streamtype, and an RTP packetization for it, you're free to
do so - though most other people probably don't see the need for it.

Ancillary data is typically stuff like close-captioning data, etc.
