Here's the relevant section, 5.2 table 2 (sorry for the formatting):<br>
<br>
<pre>Value of nal_unit_type | Description | Video elementary stream (sample entry ʹavc1ʹ or ʹavc2ʹ) | Video elementary stream (sample entry ʹvc3ʹ or ʹavc4ʹ) | Parameter set elementary stream</pre>
<pre>7 | SPS (..) | No If parameter set elementary stream is not used, SPS | Yes Parameter set elementary stream shall not be used | Yes</pre>
<pre> | | shall be stored in the Decoder Specific Information | |</pre>

I'm afraid I don't have these documents available to me anymore
(pretty sure I got them at some point).<br>
Perhaps someone else will read this and lend you their copy :)<br>

<div> That's an interesting file, but I'm not sure it is a a
compliant one: the resolution change is<br>
advertised through SPS in the bitstream, but the MP4
header says "avc1", which as far as I remembe<br>
means the H264 bitstream should not contain any SPS
(please double check this, haven't looked at the spec).<br>
<br>
Ideally, the tool you produced this file with would use an
"avc3" stream format, and not hold<br>
any parameter sets in its MP4 header. That way, you could
detect resolution changes by simply<br>
plugging a demuxer and a parser together and looking for
new caps. Currently you can only do that<br>
either by also plugging a decoder afterwards and looking
for caps changes, or analysing the SPS<br>
manually :)<br>
