To be more precise: if the decoder does not handle it for us, nothing will reach the display at all. On the other hand if the decoder evaluates that info for us, like ffmpeg ac3 metadata handling, no need to send the metadata, cause interpreting has already happened. In that case 16 bit visuals and forced > 8 bit output would be enough.
I can think of shaders doing such transforms prior to rendering but that's it.
