Hi,
I don't even know if NV supports it in HW, but seems Chinese GPUs yes..
https://www.phoronix.com/news/Moore-Threads-VA-API-FFmpeg
and running vainfo can't see it:

vainfo: VA-API version: 1.20 (libva 2.12.0)
vainfo: Driver version: VA-API NVDEC driver [egl backend]
vainfo: Supported profile and entrypoints
      VAProfileMPEG2Simple            :	VAEntrypointVLD
      VAProfileMPEG2Main              :	VAEntrypointVLD
      VAProfileVC1Simple              :	VAEntrypointVLD
      VAProfileVC1Main                :	VAEntrypointVLD
      VAProfileVC1Advanced            :	VAEntrypointVLD
      VAProfileH264Main               :	VAEntrypointVLD
      VAProfileH264High               :	VAEntrypointVLD
      VAProfileH264ConstrainedBaseline:	VAEntrypointVLD
      VAProfileHEVCMain               :	VAEntrypointVLD
      VAProfileVP8Version0_3          :	VAEntrypointVLD
      VAProfileAV1Profile0            :	VAEntrypointVLD
      VAProfileHEVCMain10             :	VAEntrypointVLD
      VAProfileHEVCMain12             :	VAEntrypointVLD

also FFMpeg supports decoding and encoding this profile from phoronix:
FFmpeg/FFmpeg@1cd5a38
FFmpeg/FFmpeg@65e537b

thanks..

None of the main desktop gpu manufacturers support Hi10p and they never will - there was no commercial content and then hevc came along to become the standard.

thanks for info..
