Hi!

For those shipping mesa-24.1.4, please check whether your copy of ffmpeg
has the patches at https://gitlab.freedesktop.org/mesa/mesa/-/merge_requests/29400#note_2432971
applied, i.e.:

* lavc/vaapi_decode: Make it possible to send multiple slice params buffers
** https://github.com/FFmpeg/FFmpeg/commit/fe9d889dcd79ea18d4dfaa39df4ddbd4c8c3b15c
* lavc/vaapi_av1: Avoid sending the same slice buffer multiple times
** https://github.com/FFmpeg/FFmpeg/commit/d2d911eb9a2fc6eb8d86b3ae025a56c1a2692fba

At a glance, I don't _think_ those patches are shipped in any release or
backported on any of the ffmpeg branches yet, but please don't take my
word for it as I only looked briefly and will check properly
later. Apologies to ffmpeg if I'm wrong.

Firefox's bundled ffmpeg is also affected, see below.

thanks,

Note, this also affects distributions shipping 24.0.6 or newer, too.
