Encoding is not a strong point of the amd opensource drivers, here's the output for my rx580 .

$ vainfo

vainfo: Driver version: Mesa Gallium driver 22.0.0-devel for AMD Radeon RX 580 Series (polaris10, LLVM 14.0.0, DRM 3.42, 5.15.13-arch1-1)

      VAProfileJPEGBaseline           : VAEntrypointVLD
      VAProfileNone                   : VAEntrypointVideoProc

Does the system have an intel integrated gpu ?
While they perform weak overall, they do tend to have beterr decoding & encoding support.

Hi @Lone_Wolf
I have an RX 580 too but I don't have the same output as you have for the vainfo command how is that possible?

$ vainfo
Trying display: wayland
Trying display: x11
vainfo: VA-API version: 1.17 (libva 2.17.1)
vainfo: Driver version: Mesa Gallium driver 23.0.1 for AMD Radeon RX 580 Series (polaris10, LLVM 15.0.7, DRM 3.49, 6.1.21-1-MANJARO)
vainfo: Supported profile and entrypoints
      VAProfileMPEG2Simple            : VAEntrypointVLD
      VAProfileMPEG2Main              : VAEntrypointVLD
      VAProfileJPEGBaseline           : VAEntrypointVLD
      VAProfileNone                   : VAEntrypointVideoProc

Could you please guide me on how to get a similar output for vainfo as the one you have?
I would like to do hardware encoding with the GPU but at the moment I can´t.

I am using amdgpu drivers.

If that is the whole output of vainfo, something is definitely wrong in your setup.

I was going to advise you to start a new thread and post full output of lspci -k & glxinfo -B in it to start troubleshooting, then I noticed 6.1.21-1-MANJARO .
You'll have to ask help on the manjaro forums.
