I don't know much about RPi4 driver, only few implementation details, so
you'll have to ping developer who wrote it. Regarding HEVC on Cedrus - it has
one pain point - it needs entry point table which in turn needs support for
variable arrays in order to be feasable AFAIK. I don't plan to develop that.
Patches for scaling matrix and segment address were sent a bit more than a
year ago but were turned down because they change control structures (among
other things). Sorry to say, but I work on other things now, so Cedrus will
have to wait. Alternatively, someone can take my patches from LibreELEC,
update and submit them. They are in use for a long time.
