**Summary:**
I am encountering an issue where HDR content is being incorrectly detected
as BT.709 color type when using VAAPI filter (scale_vaapi). I believe that
the color type detection for VAAPI needs to be enhanced to properly handle
HDR content.
**Description:**
While trying to play an HDR video using FFmpeg with VAAPI, the color type
is mistakenly identified as BT.709 instead of the correct HDR color type
(e.g., BT.2020).
Specifically, in my test video:
- Color Primaries = 9 (BT.2020)
- Color Transfer = 16 (SMPTE2084)
- Color Space = 1 (BT.709)
In the function `vaapi_vpp_fill_colour_standard`, the best format is
determined as BT.709. I believe the logic in this function should be
enhanced to better handle such cases.
**Suggested Enhancement:**
Enhance the color type detection logic in the VAAPI module to correctly
identify HDR color types. For example, additional checks of the transfer
function (SMPTE2084 is often used in HDR content) to ensure accurate color
type recognition for HDR content, especially in the
`vaapi_vpp_fill_colour_standard` function.
Thank you for considering this request.
