My (maybe dumb) point being, even if decklink does output Rec2020, surely the10-bit 422 Cineform and MagicYUV captures are assuming and encoding as Rec709 ?
that was all the information from the MediaInfo, there is nothing more. But when I play the file madvr is saying/guessing bt709, perhaps because the flag is not there. magicyuv is reporting rec709 as well.

Capturing uncompressed in Mediaexpress gave the same result.

if I make an mkv with the avi file, mediainfo report more but still nothing on bt709 /bt2020

Because I suspect lack of Rec.2020 support won't cause those types of issues you're referring to . It looks more like a chroma subsampling or lossy CbCr (high quantization) issue in the screenshots (but that could just as easy be from x265). Take a look at the Cb or Cr plane (granted, I'm looking at an 8bit PNG, but you can see right away the problems) , you will see general blurriness and encoding artifacts . Small color details like those small flowers will be blurred away

eg.
#Your PNG
ConvertToYV24()
UtoY # or VtoY

So check lower crf or lossless x265 first, if problem still there go back 1 more step and look at direct capture (e.g magicyuv)
the encode were CRF17 slow. but thats a good idea, i'll try lossless. thanks

when i encoded the source with the same setting CRF17 slow.. the colors stay perfect
