According to the CEA specification a source is expected to send this
type of infoframe once per video frame. I'm curious how you envision
this to be ensured. Would hardware provide a mechanism to store this
data and send the infoframe automatically? How would you ensure that
updates sent to the hardware match the upcoming frame?

Missing "break;"?

I'd have chosen the slightly more canonical "I-Frame", "P-Frame",
"B-Frame" here, but that's not a strong objection.

There really can't be another value here, so I think this should either
return NULL or even go as far as let it crash. There should be no way
for the invalid value to make it this far.

There's no need for the braces here.
