Comment (by gjdfgh):

 It appears ffprobe doesn't actually dump this parameter. (Seems like an
 oversight.)

 >Based on what you're saying, is there no correct matrix I can set to make
 it work properly everywhere? Because if I set BT.601 YUV coefficients,
 MPlayer will guess incorrectly for VDPAU output, even if I mark it
 correctly in the stream?

 Yes. Player support is a bit spotty.
