VA-API Initialization Failing on Chromium

I'm not sure if this error is caused by this patch or incorrect build configurations of the chromium package on the Arch repository. Any pointers of how to proceed would be welcome!

  • Chromium Version 84.0.4147.89 (Official Build) Arch Linux (64-bit)
  • VA-API <-> VDPAU Installed Thru AUR Package
  • Chromium --ignore-gpu-blacklist enabled.
  • VA-API Patches Installed
  • Linux manjaro 5.6.19-2-MANJARO

Chromium error when trying to playback a h264 or VP9 video:

Failed to create dedicated X11 display!
[181570:181570:0728/022528.579224:ERROR:vaapi_video_decode_accelerator.cc(688)] Failed to initialize VppVaapiWrapper
[181936:15:0728/022528.588705:ERROR:batching_media_log.cc(38)] MediaEvent: {"error":"VDA Error 4"}

Update: I compiled the chromium-vaapi AUR package from source and everything worked as expected. I will file a bug report there.
