By default the colr atom is not written by ffmpeg, even when mandated (such as 
described in TN2162 for uncompressed in QuickTime). You can enable the colr 
atom while muxing by adding, -movflags write_colr. It’s been over 4 years since 
Vittorio added colr atom support, perhaps time to consider making it enabled by 
default.
