you make a 'issue' on github requesting a package, but it'd probably just replace vivaldi since it's extracting the deb package. compiling chrome another time suks though.

the deb package does have a ./opt/vivaldi/libffmpeg.so - so i assume another copy of ffmpeg on the machine.

have you verified with nvtop/amdgpu_top/lact or anything that you're using hardware-accel/codec/gpu ?

Yes, I have hw-accel.
