 with a compress video picture, so in the same AVpacket.

 no
 if you use no container than you will never call av_write_frame or
 av_interleaved_write_frame and nothing
 would make any change to your side data that you added. If you do call
 either of these functions then you do use a container and i would guess
 this container does not support storing the side data that you added.
