Merged: No


Alternative to #9121

The client starts playback from a stream with an average bitrate. In some cases this is HEVC SDR. After a while, the client switches to the HDR stream, but the server doesn't restart ffmpeg and the client continues playing the old stream.

Since we have a VideoRange condition, the HEVC SDR fallback stream is no longer needed, IMO.

Alternatively, we can use bitrate copying - #9121
