x265 3.0: unable to propagate max-cll=0,0 to SEI
After trying to encode with x265 3.0, I noticed the CLL metadata is now missing if specifying max-cll=0,0 In e.g. x265 2.8, setting max-cll=0,0 was possible and the information was propagated to SEI.
max-cll with non-zero values works perfectly. I found no information about change of behavior for this parameter.
I've tried also adding explicitly 'hdr' option but it doesn't help. If I'll add dolby-vision-profile=8.1, then the max-cll=0,0 starts to work, but I wouldn't want to limit this option to specific DoVi profile.
I've verified this on the official x265 3.0 (https://bitbucket.org/multicoreware/x265/downloads/x265_3.0.tar.gz)
Thank you, Marek

Account Deactivated Thanks for the report. This changeset (fef63866bb60) was the culprit; we introduced emit-hdr-sei cli option to force emitting these even when max-cll or max-fall were 0. I have backed out the changeset now (changeset 636258ebc7a9) and pushed it. Can you please confirm if things are ok?

Digging deeper into this I see that now:
but m_emitCLLSEI is set to true only in case of:
This looks inconsistent with the documentation of 'hdr' parameter and others. Perhaps m_emitCLLSEI is not needed, or m_emitCLLSEI should be set to true also in case of 'hdr'
I don't think the maxCLL/FALL=0 should be allowed as specific to dolbyProfile == 81 overall.
