Hi Giovara,

SVT HEVC has the interface to enable/disable sending a vui structure in the HEVC bitstream, but supports no interface for setting the color properties before encoding yet. I will be opening an issue in SVT HEVC github asking if they have plans to add such feature, and will keep you posted. In the meantime, I think it is not blocking the first version of this plugin’s merging , is it?

SVT HEVC’s HDR is also an on-off switch, please refer to https://github.com/intel/SVT-HEVC/blob/master/Docs/svt-hevc_encoder_user_guide.md.
