Hi, thanks a lot for trying to solve this, see remarks inline below:

I do not think it’s fine to change this mid-demuxing, as the caller
has no way to know this changed „behind its back“ so may still hold
on to the old pointer and run into invalid memory access.

I checked with James and he suggested that maybe propagating the new
metadata with AVPacket’s side_data might be a better approach, similar
to AV_PKT_DATA_NEW_EXTRADATA.
