Simultaneously map video and data streams to one subprocess pipeline in real-time

I need to process the video stream and the klvdata streams simultaneously in real-time in OpenCV/Python. I'm using FFMPEG to read the file or stream as OpenCV does not retain the klvdata. I pass the data to OpenCV with the subprocess module.

My problem is I cannot figure out how to map both the video and klvdata to the same subprocess pipe simultaneously?

My code:

#!/usr/bin/env python3
import sys, json, klvdata;
from subprocess import PIPE
import subprocess as sp
import cv2
import numpy

command = ['ffmpeg',
    '-i', 'DayFlight.mpg',
    '-map', '0:0',
    '-map', '0:d',        
    '-pix_fmt', 'bgr24',
    '-c:v', 'rawvideo',      
    '-an','-sn',              
    '-f', 'image2pipe', '-',
    '-c:d', 'copy',
    '-f','data',
    ]

pipe = sp.Popen(command, stdin=sp.PIPE, stdout=sp.PIPE, stderr=sp.PIPE, bufsize=10**8)

while True:
   raw_image = pipe.stdout.read(1280*720*3)
   image =  numpy.fromstring(raw_image, dtype='uint8')
   image = image.reshape((720,1280,3))          
   if image is not None:
      cv2.imshow('Video', image)
   if cv2.waitKey(1) & 0xFF == ord('q'):
      break
   for packet in klvdata.StreamParser(pipe.stdout): 
      metadata = packet.MetadataList()
      print(metadata)
pipe.stdout.flush()
cv2.destroyAllWindows()

Produces the below error:

Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "test_cv.py", line 32, in <module>
    metadata = packet.MetadataList()
AttributeError: 'UnknownElement' object has no attribute 'MetadataList'

Any help is greatly appreciated.
