From: Niklas Haas <git@haasn.dev>

This filter can detect various properties about the image, including
whether or not there are out-of-range values, or whether the input appears
to use straight or premultiplied alpha.

Of course, these can only be heuristics, with "undetermined" as the base
case. While we can definitely prove the existence of full range or
straight alpha colors, we can never infer the opposite.

 This filter supports the all above options as @ref{commands}.
 
+@section colordetect
+Analyze the video frames to determine the effective value range and alpha
+mode.
+
+The filter accepts the following options:
+
+@table @option
+@item mode
+Set of properties to detect. Unavailable properties, such as alpha mode for
+an input image without an alpha channel, will be ignored automatically.
+
+Accepts a combination of the following flags:
+
+@table @samp
+@item color_range
+Detect if the source countains luma pixels outside the limited (MPEG) range,
+which indicates that this is a full range YUV source.
+@item alpha_mode
+Detect if the source contains color values above the alpha channel, which
+indicates that the alpha channel is independent (straight), rather than
+premultiplied.
+@item all
+Enable detection of all of the above properties. This is the default.
+@end table
+
+@end table
+
 @section colorize
 Overlay a solid color on the video stream.
