I did:   export VAAPI_MPEG4_ENABLED=true
But still get error:  Decoder msmpeg4 does not support device type vaapi.

MPEG-4 Part 2 is disabled by default due to VAAPI limitations. Set the environment variable VAAPI_MPEG4_ENABLED=true to try to use it anyway.

I tried with cingg/ffmpeg7 and it seemed to work, but ffmpeg7 had all our patches including patch8
