Can't record my screen with ffmpeg and using vaapi.

I can't record my screen with ffmpeg and using vaapi.
When I run the command:

ffmpeg -vaapi_device /dev/dri/renderD128 -f x11grab -video_size 1440x900 -i :0 -vf 'hwupload,scale_vaapi=format=nv12' -c:v h264_vaapi -qp 24 output.mp4

And start recording, this message appears:

The driver does not support some desired compressed headers (desired 0xd, found 0x1).

And when it ends it takes a long time to process and the video is super slow.

How do I know if this is a problem on my Arch on ffmpeg?
How fix it?

My GPU: AMD Radeon R9 m370x
My drivers:

xf86-video-amdgpu 19.1.0-2
xf86-video-ati 1:19.1.0-2
xf86-video-fbdev 0.5.0-2

libva-mesa-driver 20.3.1-1
mesa 20.3.1-1
opencl-mesa 20.3.1-1

Re: Can't record my screen with ffmpeg and using vaapi.

I'm also having this issue with a 5500 XT card.
