The libva package contains a library which provides access to hardware accelerated video processing, using hardware to accelerate video processing in order to offload the central processing unit (CPU) to decode and encode compressed digital video. The VA API video decode/encode interface is platform and window system independent targeted at Direct Rendering Infrastructure (DRI) in the X Window System however it can potentially also be used with direct framebuffer and graphics sub-systems for video output. Accelerated processing includes support for video decoding, video encoding, subpicture blending, and rendering.
This package is known to build and work properly using an LFS 12.2 platform.

The VA API driver suitable for the hardware in your system:
intel-vaapi-driver-2.4.1 (for Intel
GPUs provided with Haswell CPUs or earlier), intel-media-24.2.5 (for Intel GPUs
provided with Broadwell CPUs or later), and Mesa-24.1.5 (providing the
r600, radeonsi, and nouveau
VA API drivers, for the ATI/AMD Radeon HD 2xxx GPUs and later, and
supported
NVIDIA GPUs; there is a circular dependency, read the Mesa page
for information on how to break it)
Install libva by running the following commands:
cd build && meson setup --prefix=$XORG_PREFIX --buildtype=release && ninja
This package does not come with a test suite.
Now, as the root user:
ninja install
