Unfortunately vaapi doesn't work on my computer, so I can't test. Anyway this is what the mpv documentation says about vaapi:

Intel VA API video output driver with support for hardware decoding. Note that there is absolutely no reason to use this, other than compatibility. This is low quality, and has issues with OSD.

Note

This driver is for compatibility with crappy systems. You can use vaapi hardware decoding with --vo=gpu too.

So I think you should use a different one.
