Not really. It's just that the vainfo bundled in the snap is from the focal deb which is 2.6 and what it reports as 'libva version' is just its own version. If you wget the vainfo from impish in the snap it will tell libva 2.10.

We should remove vainfo from the snap, it's just confusing. The libva version now is correct and chromium is correctly loading 2.14 despite what vainfo is reporting

Could you give details on that. Is Chromium failing to use VDA for you even use --disable-features=UseChromeOSDirectVideoDecoder (which you didn't it seems in your previous comments?). If so could you copy the output of the command and maybe the log from --enable-logging=stderr ?
