AVC Encode is broken with intel-media-driver-non-free (possibly also free version, haven't tested).

Applying https://github.com/intel/media-driver/pull/1500 to upstream master fixed this for me. Can this be backported?

Description-en: VAAPI driver for the Intel GEN8+ Graphics family
 The VA-API (Video Acceleration API) enables hardware accelerated video
 decode/encode at various entry-points (VLD, IDCT, Motion Compensation
 etc.) for the prevailing coding standards today (MPEG-2, MPEG-4
 ASP/H.263, MPEG-4 AVC/H.264, and VC-1/WMV3). It provides an interface
 to fully expose the video decode capabilities in today's GPUs.
 .
 This package contains the video decode and encode driver backend for the
 Intel HD Graphics of the Intel Core processor family. The supported platforms
 include:
  * Broadwell
  * Skylake
  * Broxton
  * Apollo Lake
  * Kaby Lake
  * Coffee Lake
  * Whiskey Lake
  * Cannon Lake
  * Ice Lake

This bug is missing log files that will aid in diagnosing the problem. While running an Ubuntu kernel (not a mainline or third-party kernel) please enter the following command in a terminal window:

apport-collect 1992753

and then change the status of the bug to 'Confirmed'.

If, due to the nature of the issue you have encountered, you are unable to run this command, please add a comment stating that fact and change the bug status to 'Confirmed'.

This change has been made by an automated script, maintained by the Ubuntu Kernel Team.

[Gijs Peskens (gijspeskens)]

@Daniel, I see you've set status to confirmed. Do you still need me to run the apport collection?

I currently have the self compiled media driver installed and manually had to install a newer kernel due to https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/1991704

I can of course install the ubuntu packaged media-driver, but tbh see little value ;)

You don't need to do anything more because the bug is confirmed by the upstream links.
