nearly similar bug to https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1763301 but also appears with MOZ_DISABLE_RDD_SANDBOX=1 running on Ubuntu 22.04 wayland (tried both: firefox snap package and mozillateam ppa deb package)

intel_gpu_top shows no activity on the video bar. I guess [RDD 54045: MediaSupervisor #1]: D/PlatformDecoderModule FFMPEG: VA-API is disabled by preference. is the culprit.

Why is firefox telling this? (And why doesn't it state which preference to blame)

In config I do have set:

media.ffmpeg.vaapi.enabled = true
media.ffvpx.enabled = false.
media.rdd-vpx.enabled = false.
media.navigator.mediadatadecoder_vpx_enabled = true

Does this problem still occur? If yes, please open about:support, click on "Copy raw data to clipboard" and paste it here.

No, in deed now it is working :-) (Btw. it is of course not MOZ_LOG=ObserverService:5 but MOZ_LOG=PlatformDecoderModule:5)

Thanks alot!

@Martin just FYI MOZ_DISABLE_RDD_SANDBOX shouldn't be necessary any more, neither are media.ffvpx.enabled = false and media.rdd-vpx.enabled = false :)

Thanks alot :-)
Though, I have upgraded ffmpeg to version 5 via ppa to also get av1 hw decoding support. This again stopped va-api decoding and I am again getting
FFMPEG: VA-API is disabled by preference. again (tried with all the settings as in OP) even for vp9 videos. So only with ffmp4 it is currently working.

Weird - AV1 works on my AMD box here, both on 103 and nightly. And there have been a couple of patches that should make sure both ffmpeg 4 and 5 are supported. Could you try nightly? It should work just out of the box.

Yep, I can confirm that firefox nightly (105.0a1) works fine with ffmpeg5 and unmodified about:config. I can confirm that for vp9, for av1 I had to figure out that my iHD is not supporting it (10th gen Intel CPU).
