Currently master-branch skips the search for the hw plugin, and if the sw decoder is missing, master branch fails with a segfault if HEVC 10-bit-decoding is attempted. That is, if the plugin with hash 15dd936825ad475ea34e35f3f54217a6 is not found, end result is a crash:

branch topic_linux_and_windows supposedly supports hw accelerated HEVC 10-bit decoding. Why don't master branch?
