Hmm, I would have expected that information to be in there somewhere.
The decoder should be able to detect the encoding of the data stream

actually is.

from an application point of view it makes more sense to follow the model:

decode_pat()
foreach program
{
 decode_pmt() ==> identify the codec used by the stream_type
}

Moreover, the pes headers in mpeg2 are already overbloated with 90% of useless crap;
adding more stuff would have been a bad choice, IMO.
