I downloaded the 1440p and 4k versions and run it with madvr but the video is not detected as HDR.

I can only talk about the 720p version (higher is not supported by the downloader I've uses), but the downloaded version of this specific video does not seem to have HDR metadata (resulting in a "flat" look).

This specific one seems to be true HDR apart from the missing metadata, but I've seen others [1] which seem to be delivered as already rendered to SDR (can't check on a HDR display because I don't have one).
