The outcome will not be "proper and without any errors" because CUVID does not support 10-bit output at this time, it can only do 8-bit. I explained this numereous times before. It may decode 10-bit, but then it only outputs 8, and data is lost.
I do not plan to implement any decoding mode where I know that it will deliver anything but the original unmodified image (and I also would not accept a patch or pull request to that effect, because it goes against my design philosophy)

And like I also repeated numereous times before, there is no advantage to using CUVID. Any hardware that can handle HEVC 10-bit in CUVID can also handle it in DXVA2 - so use that instead!

Please just drop this topic, its not going to get you any further. CUVID is hanging on by a thread as it is, I'm more likely to drop it entirely then to spend more time arguing about it.
