This does not fully match hantro sdk:

  enable direct MV writing and POC tables for high/main streams.
  enable it also for any "baseline" stream which have main/high tools enabled.

  (sps->profile_idc > 66 && sps->constrained_set0_flag == 0) ||
  sps->frame_mbs_only_flag != 1 ||
  sps->chroma_format_idc != 1 ||
  sps->scaling_matrix_present_flag != 0 ||
  pps->entropy_coding_mode_flag != 0 ||
  pps->weighted_pred_flag != 0 ||
  pps->weighted_bi_pred_idc != 0 ||
  pps->transform8x8_flag != 0 ||
  pps->scaling_matrix_present_flag != 0

Above check is used when DIR_MV_BASE should be written.
And WRITE_MVS_E is set to nal_ref_idc != 0 when above is true.

I think it may be safer to always set DIR_MV_BASE and keep the existing nal_ref_idc check for WRITE_MVS_E.
(That is what I did in my "media: hantro: H264 fixes and improvements" series, v2 is incoming)
Or have you found any video that is having issues in such case?
