Looks like a bug in qtmultimedia where it detects av1 hardware support when it is actually not available. As a workaround you can probably set QT_FFMPEG_DECODING_HW_DEVICE_TYPES=, to disable hw decoders altogether. Not quite sure what the right fix here is though, probably needs reporting to qtmultimedia though. As far as I see we have no direct control over decoder negotiation. |
