Hi Reto,

We do rewrap ProRes into Matroska. Which is the reason for transcoding

As well as format normalization (to have less mixed codecs).
I agree that format normalization towards a loss-less codec ensures that
content will be accessible now and in the future in a more reliable way.
Keeping multiple codecs requires maintenance workload for multiple decoders.
Back to the original topic of preserving color metadata: I also stumbled
over this issue and if I remember correctly there have been multiple
attempts to fix this but unfortunately none of them got enough
attraction / guidance to be accepted into the FFmpeg code-base.
For example:
https://ffmpeg.org/pipermail/ffmpeg-devel/2018-February/225512.html
https://ffmpeg.org/pipermail/ffmpeg-devel/2018-May/230139.html
Luckily in my workflows I have all the properties in some "media format"
parameter-set besides the media file so I just manually add the right
flags on the encoder side instead of depending on them being forwarded
correctly.
Regards,
Tobias
