VP9 encoding with hardware acceleration fails on Intel Coffee Lake CPU. Using x11-libs/libva-intel-driver-2.1.0 and media-video/ffmpeg-3.4.2-r1. Issue described here: https://github.com/intel/intel-vaapi-driver/issues/362 Commit that seems to fix it (tested on few videos and encoding was succesful): https://github.com/intel/intel-vaapi-driver/commit/7c5820d07db4c686be0866e17d27c1e798f784f0
