HDR 10-bit: Capture, playback, and sharing 10-bit video
summary
Checks device support for 10‑bit HDR (requires Android T or later) and selects an HLG capture profile, configuring MediaCodec with explicit transfer, color, profile and format parameters. Playback notes: TextureView clips to 8‑bit, so use SurfaceView with MediaCodec or ExoPlayer (HDR supported by default) to preserve 10‑bit. For sharing to SDR devices, pipeline through Transformer and enable SDR tone mapping to transcode cleanly; CameraX HDR appears in next alpha.
