Description of problem: gstreamer1-vaapi is not (yet) available in EPEL-8. can this package be added? How reproducible: always
It probably needs to be tested before. For info, which vaapi backend do you have ? (and which hw revision ?) also wayland or Xorg ? Best is probably to use intel_gpu_top to report usage of the video engine. Can you try this scratch build ? https://koji.fedoraproject.org/koji/taskinfo?taskID=69162080
