Great, thank you :)

Right, yes, it's not merged yet - it's present in the libav tree and branch 
here but skipped from ffmpeg master.

Currently that merge is loosely blocked behind the ffmpeg.c filter setup being 
unsuitable for hardware transcode (the same issue that forces the 
'format=vaapi|nv12,hwupload' hack for VAAPI transcode) - the patches were 
skipped at the time due to merging issues and it has not been revisited fully 
yet.  Now, the filter does not actually depend on that because it can work 
standalone in lavfi, so I would be happy to just merge it without it being 
usable in ffmpeg.c so that this could continue.  Alternatively, since all of 
the hardware filters were merged from libav, you could work there instead.

(Or feel free to ignore that and just deal with the code you care about 
directly.  If you only do some of them then hopefully I or someone else would 
be able to sort out the others at some point.)
