Hmm. I was missing that the VAAPI decoder has fixed matching - it only accepts things which exactly match the hull of each profile, not ones inside it which are compatible. That seems worth fixing.
Do other decoder implementations do the same thing with strict matching? libavcodec's software decoder doesn't - the profile isn't really relevant to it. nvdec doesn't obviously do anything there either because it accepts all rext streams, though presumably some of them fail later.
Thanks,
