Hm. I just reread the whole section again.
Martin, did you mean to use intel-media-driver (iHD_drv_video.so)
instead of the libva-intel-hybrid-driver (hybrid_drv_video.so)? Because
everything makes sense with that substitution and the sandbox bug only
mentions iHD_drv_video.so.
Frankly I use only libva-intel-driver (i965_drv_video.so) for Intel UHD
620/630 which I have available and other info I have from upstream
bugzilla (
https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1619585).
