Bug Description

This is about the hwacc branch of snap-from-source package.

The chromium 110 version of the build guide came with the instruction to add an additional flag when launching chromium:

VaapiVideoDecodeLinuxGL

This flag is not present in chromium.launcher of the beta branch of hwacc, causing hw acceleration to fail. This was caught by checkbox kivu run.

I will make a merge request adding this flag.

$ snap info chromium | grep installed
installed: 110.0.5481.77-hwacc (2320) 174MB -
