I'm reading you here, and reading the spec again [0], and you are saying the
Chromium isn't following the initialization process. That means, it should be
impossible to allocate 10bit capture buffer, since the SPS in place specify the
color depth. Other parameters in other codec can influence the reference buffer
size, so you could endup with the wrong allocation.

You cannot accept a format that falls against the color depth in the SPS
control, and rkvdec does not do color conversion implicitly. This can otherwise
lead to letting the HW overrun the buffer (forcing 8bit with 10bit content). Can
you check with Chromium dev if they can perhaps adhere to the spec instead ?
This is all news to me, but I probably never had to test 10bit playback in
Chromium outside of MTK (which might not be less strict, hopefully done the
right way).

regards,
Nicolas
