Well, I have a atlhon 200GE and I enabled override software rendering in brave options to enable gpu in rendering, the only problem is that I can't actually see the video. It seems buggy and pink, I don't know why. This just happens with VP09 youtube videos, the others works just fine, so I am not sure on what is happening here. Maybe I am missing some hardware acceleration driver? I installed all libvas I guess.

Then most likely, VP9 support isn't there yet for your GPU and by forcing on HW acceleration you are asking Brave to use a decoder which is not fully functional.
I've seen this before, you need to disable allow_rgb10_configs in mesa.
Try this: https://github.com/ValveSoftware/steam-for-linux/issues/5434#issuecomment-379027036
I believe it's an issue with the chromium vaapi patch afaik which assumes rgba8.
There may be a way to only disable the dri conf in the brave application if it causes issues elsewhere.
Thanks!!!!!!!
This solved the issue!!!
I don't know if it is a good idea to make rgb10 off by default in solus, but I think it should be a good idea to write about it in trobleshooting in docs. I can help to write if I am allowed to.
(also, in a fresh iso of ubuntu 19.10, the problem was not appering, maybe because ubuntu mesa is older than solus? Not sure
Just more one question, is even possible that I installed some unnecessary libva that will cause some problems?
Some more digging it seems to be a gstreamer-vaapi issue. There are two WIP patches to resolve it.
https://gitlab.freedesktop.org/gstreamer/gstreamer-vaapi/issues/136
This only seems to be an issue with the radeon mesa driver (correct me if i'm wrong). It affects VA-API playback in any application that supports it.
edit: ubuntu is probably disabling rgb10 for the radeon driver by default to avoid this issue, maybe we should do the same?
I think its a good idea to do the same until the bug is fixed,but is up to you. And yeah, I think it is a issue only with radeon mesa.
This should be resolved with gstreamer-vaapi 1.19.1, we're on 1.20.5 now. Feel free to reopen if still an issue.
