black screen when using vaapi with intel gpu

[Yarn]

I'm running docker on an LXD container but I think I have the gpu fully passed through. The /dev/dri folder is visible within the docker container

ls -lh /dev/dri
total 0
crw-rw---- 1 root root 226,   0 Nov 23 03:38 card0
crw-rw-rw- 1 root root 226, 128 Nov 23 03:38 renderD128

I tried VLC and firefox with the same result, I don't see anything helpful in the logs for either. These are the logs for VLC. neko.log

I installed some packages to try to get things to work, one of the pci ones got rid of an error (not sure which) but none of them changed the result.

Could you try again with new images?

That worked for me, had same issue.

I'm still getting a black screen with no obvious error message. I assume these images have NEKO_HWENC: VAAPI by default since it happens with or without that setting now.

It has been changed to use by default, you can turn it off using NEKO_HWENC: none.

You could set gst debugging to more verbose to see why its failing, e.g. GST_DEBUG=*:4

adding that I get some output about Xorg crashing

The error at the end of the log file /home/neko/.local/share/xorg/Xorg.99.0.log inside the container

On my intel n100, the VAAPI method doesn't work in any way. I'm using VAAPI fine on the media server, but on the n.eko I just get a black screen.

I'm also still facing this issue with intel-firefox.

Running vainfo within the container returns:
