I am currently trying to run Stadia 4K gameplay in Ubuntu 20.04, which demands VP9 hardware accelerated decoding.
So far, I've tried both Brave and Chromium with hardware acceleration enabled, and I tried this tutorial: How To Enable Hardware Acceleration In Chromium On Ubuntu Or Linux Mint for installing a VA-API patched PPA build enabling hardware acceleration in Ubuntu, without success.
My current system configuration is:
Computer: Dell Latitude 5490
Distro: Ubuntu 20.04 LTS
CPU: Intel i7-8650U (4.2 GHz)
GPU: Nvidia GeForce MX130
GPU: Intel UHD Graphics 620
Graphics driver: nvidia-driver-440
Apparently, hardware acceleration does not work with Nvidia GPUs, but should work with Intel integrated GPU. However, selecting Intel GPU in Nvidia X Server settings, does not make hardware acceleration work as it should. It also made my system very slow and choppy when I use an external monitor.
How can I set up hardware acceleration correctly?
