--- Comment #3 from Arjen Hiemstra <ahiemstra at heimr.nl> ---
OpenH264 is not a hardware encoder, it's a software one. We use VAAPI to detect
whether hardware encoding is working or not. If that succeeds but doesn't
actually work, then that's a distro bug that should be fixed by your distro.
However, what I think is happening here is that it tries hardware encoding,
fails because of missing drivers, then tries software encoding which also fails
because currently we only support libx264 for that. There's a merge request in
the works to add support for that, which will probably be released with Plasma
6.2. Once that is in, I think this issue will be fixed.
