Description
I have a strange issue; when using Kodi and the built in Youtube addon with the inputstream adaptive addon for playing back DASH content, my Arc A380 seems to have issues with playback - I get a blank screen most of the time.
I am running under Archlinux, and see this issue with both the repo/stable version of kodi, ffmpeg, and libva, as well as the -git versions available in the AUR.
If I disable VP9 VAAPI decoding, CPU decoding does work.
Interestingly, if I download the youtube video with yt-dlp, I am then able to play it with hardware decoding without issue.
I'm not sure if there's something wrong with how the DASH stream is assembled/used by Kodi, or if this is an issue with libva itself.
