Do you want to "burn" the numbers into the picture, or are you looking
for a way to store this information in some other manner?  The former
is not specific to MPEG-TS, and MPEG-TS has no provisions for the
latter, unless you use a private stream or similar.

ISO 13818-1 is the definition of MPEG-TS.  There are drafts to be
found for free, but you'll have to pay to get the final version.
