This is misleading.
This error message (for me) happens when I accidentally compile FFmpeg
without aom/dav1d support, and try to play AV1 content. AV1 decoding does
not require hw decoding - it simply requires an external library.
Will the hwaccel be autodetected when AV1 hw decoding is supported by the
platform?
