gstreamer-vaapi patch required



Hi,

Unfortunately, we have failed to resolve a longstanding technical disagreement with the gstreamer-vaapi developers regarding issues in [1] and [2]. As a result, we request distros apply the patch [3] to your gstreamer-vaapi packages. It's a one-liner, so it shouldn't be too much burden, but you'll need to carry it indefinitely. All distributions need this patch.

This patch disables gstreamer-vaapi for AMD graphics users. Without this patch, video playback may not work for AMD graphics users when gstreamer-vaapi is installed.
