+This sample demonstrates how to extract and parse Supplemental Enhancement Information (SEI) from video streams.
+
+It shows how to:
+1. Access SEI messages from decoded frames and write them to a file
+2. Parse different SEI message types
+
+
+SEI messages are additional data embedded in video streams that provide supplementary information:
+- HDR/Display Metadata: Color volume, light levels, and transfer characteristics for HDR content
+- Timecode Data: Frame timing and sequence information
+- Custom Metadata: User-defined data for application-specific needs
+
+Common Use Cases:
+- Video Playback: HDR display configuration and color management
+- Content Creation: Frame accurate editing and post-processing
+- Broadcast: Timing synchronization and content identification
+- Custom Applications: Embedding application-specific metadata in the video stream
+
+
+Usage: python decode_sei_msg.py -i <input_file> -s <sei_file>
+Example: python decode_sei_msg.py -i input.mp4 -s sei_data.bin
+
+Arguments:
+  -i: Input video file
+  -s: Output SEI message file (default: sei_message.bin).
+  -st: Output SEI type message file (default: sei_type_message.bin)
+  -d: Use device memory (1) or host memory (0) (default: 1)
+  -g: GPU ID to use (default: 0)

+This sample demonstrates low-latency video decoding using the native decoder.
+It shows how to:
+1. Configure different decoder latency modes
+2. Use zero-latency decoding for minimal delay
+3. Control frame output ordering
+4. Set end-of-picture flags for immediate decode
+
+
+The DisplayDecodeLatencyType enumeration defines three possible latency modes:
+
+- NATIVE: For a stream with B-frames, there is at least 1 frame latency between submitting an input packet and 
+          getting the decoded frame in display order.
+
+- LOW: For All-Intra and IPPP sequences (without B-frames), there is no latency between submitting an input packet
+       and getting the decoded frame in display order. Do not use this flag if the stream contains B-frames. 
+       This mode maintains proper display ordering.
+
+- ZERO: Enables zero latency for All-Intra / IPPP streams. Do not use this flag if the stream contains B-frames.
+        This mode maintains decode ordering.
+
+
+Usage: python decode_with_low_latency.py -i <input_video_file> -o <output_file> -dl <latency_mode>
+Example: python decode_with_low_latency.py -i input.mp4 -o output.yuv -dl 1
+
+Arguments:
+  -i: Input video file
+  -o: Output raw video file (default: <input_name>.yuv)
+  -d: Use device memory (1) or host memory (0) (default: 1)
+  -g: GPU ID to use (default: 0)
+  -f: Number of frames to decode (optional, default: all frames)
+  -dl: Decode latency mode (0: NATIVE, 1: LOW, 2: ZERO)
