>Can you please clarify what does fix-optional status for firefox 100 mean for this bug?
It means that if there is a simple fix for the issue, release management would've considered taking that fix into Firefox 100. As is hopefully rather obvious, there isn't going to be a simple fix for this. It needs a ton of work - that has progressed well, thankfully.
>I assume this bug will be fixed once video decoding has been moved to a utility process (bug 1722051).
The utility process makes it easier to move things in a separate processes each with a custom sandbox, but the plan is to fix the current RDD process for VA-API support before we consider that. The difficulty is adding support for exactly those features VA-API needs - multiplied by each video driver having slightly different requirements. Once the sandboxing code supports that we can look if there'd be a meaningful security benefit in moving things around.
