[Enhancement] Color Profile UI options or warnings

[chipweinberger]

I've run into issues with colors being off. Handbrake does not have UI options for color profile and I think this is an area VidCoder could surpass HandBrake's UI once again. It would be very useful to have as people run into this issue all the time for the past 5+ years!

Pretty much this I think: https://github.com/HandBrake/HandBrake/issues/493 or maybe this: https://github.com/HandBrake/HandBrake/issues/780

My issue is the handbrake is using the wrong color profile for my video. And is also using the wrong color range too. Accoording to mediainfo my source file has no BT.XXX profile specified and is color range FULL. The output file (default settings) has BT.709 specified (which is wrong) and color range LIMITED when I'd rather keep it at FULL.

It would be great to have a couple drop down menus to specify these settings. something like this for my example scenario:

Source's Color range: FULL (detected)

• FULL (detected)
• LIMITED

Source's Color Profile: Assume BT.709 No Color Profile Detected in Source.

• BT.601
• BT.709
• BT.2020

Once HandBrake adds those options to the API I'll be able to add those controls.
