Look at the last 5 bits of the first byte of the NAL unit - i.e., take the first byte of the NAL unit, and ‘and’ it with 0x1F. This gives you the “nal_unit_type”. The meaning of each NAL unit type is defined by the H.264 video specification. You can also see it described in our code in the array “nal_unit_type_description_h264”; see “liveMedia/H264or5VideoStreamFramer.cpp”, lines 194-226.
