Do some more reading on the YUV formats and codec IDs
@michael-harrison I am not expert ,but I think color depth (bit depth) is not the same as color space and what I need to know is the color bit depth which could be 8bit, 10bit, 12bit, 16bit ..etc.
Michael suggested "you" go online, search the four-letter codec ID, along with "ProRes 4444," and find out for yourself.
Our volunteers are going to be incredibly busy with newcomers over the next sixty days, and the time simply isn't available to answer all questions that can be easily searched. It may be helpful to you to read the first paragraph here:

The bit depth is defined as the number of discrete bits used to construct each pixel. Lots of internet literature available on that subject, too!
@Musicvid Thank you, but I am looking for a quick answer if "it is possible to find the color bit depth in Vegas"! I was not looking for information or definition of YUV color space or bit depth because I don't care about such information at the moment .. and when times come and that information interest me, I will be looking for with Google search, not in the forum which according to my understanding is supposed to help users in finding specific information about specific product (Vegas Pro).
So if any of you guys know the answer to my question, will it hurt to just say it here, even if the answer was basically "Not possible"! Or maybe provide direct link for the answer?
Not to seem rude, yassera, because you are a nice guy, but Michael and I already know the answer. MediaInfo "may" or "may not" show the bit depth. Have you checked you Vegas file properties? I know you've seen the link before.
Also, have you actually checked your Media Bin information when you load your file in Vegas?
We don't know what these methods will or will not show, so please do not hold your peers responsible for this. We are not Magix Support, nor did we write your codec's metadata.
Here is your Google search term, and also a song for you.

@Musicvid Thanks again. Before posting this thread, I already tried Vegas file properties and the Media Bin information and it does not show the bit depth. Also, the screenshot you provided shows the bit depth of the audio, not the video. Anyway, thanks for trying and for the song😁
Thanks for pointing that out in my hasty response, and now you have your answer.
Keep in mind that the western hemisphere holiday "busy season" started today, and we will be swamped on all fronts, business and social, through the end of January, 2021. This is more important this year, because the bulk of both commitments has moved. Best of luck.
@yassera-s ... if you have the free Sony Catalyst Browse installed, the File data listing for each event highlighted does show the color sampling including color depth: e.g. "Color Sampling YCbCr: 4:2:0 8bit".

@Dexcon You are genius, I own Sony Catalyst Prepare and indeed it does show the color depth:
Thank you very much 👍👍👍
I hope Vegas will add this ability in future update... or maybe in the upcoming digital media asset management!
