Steps to reproduce:

Play a video from ZDF.

Actual results:

According to sudo intel_gpu_top the Video engine was not used to decode the video, that means, VA-API wasn’t used.

Expected results:

The video should be decoded using the video engine with VA-API.

Profile from logging: https://share.firefox.dev/4jd5MKM

Strangely enough, testing later, VA-API was used.
