With ffmpeg CLI, you can try something like:

  ffmpeg -hwaccel vdpau -i some_8bit_hevc_file.mkv -frames 10 -pix_fmt yuv420p out.y4m

You will see quite obvious artifacts, that look like interlacing gone
wrong.

GL_NV_vdpau_interop has a similar bug. You can test that with e.g.:

  mpv --hwdec=vdpau some_8bit_hevc_file.mkv

(other software which uses this extension to map VdpVideoSurface as GL
textures should be affected too.)
