Right now we don't set VADisplay but use av_hwdevice_ctx_create() to create vaapi device without display.

Some drivers (intel ironlake in my case) fails to pick up Wayland display but creates va-api device on top of X11 one which leads to HW playback failure.

As a solution let's create VADisplay explicitly on top of our wayland display connection.

Some gfx drivers (especially on a child process) can open X11 VADisplay instead of a Wayland one which leads
to HW playback failure. As a solution let's create VADisplay explicitly on top of our wayland display connection.

  • Load vaGetDisplayWl from libva-wayland.so
  • Explicitly create VADisplay at CreateVAAPIDeviceContext()
  • Use VAAPIDisplayHolder class to release our VADisplay when AVHWDeviceContext is released (by hwctx->free).
