Q1-17 is likely the release date of the CPU, if you have this GPU your CPU is probably one of these.
Can you check that you have files in /dev/dri/ on your host OS (you can also note the group id of /dev/dri/renderD128 so that you can set it in your docker-compose) ?
It should look something like that:
$ ls -nl /dev/dri
total 0
drwxr-xr-x 2 0 0 80 Apr 22 08:39 by-path
crw-rw---- 1 0 44 226, 0 Apr 22 08:39 card0
crw-rw---- 1 0 107 226, 128 Apr 22 08:39 renderD128
If this folder does not exists then check that you have the intel GPU driver installed on your host OS. (On my hardware it uses the i915 driver, you can check it with lspci -k | grep -A 5 VGA to know which driver is in use by the GPU)
On my machine:
$ lspci -k | grep -A5 VGA
00:02.0 VGA compatible controller: Intel Corporation HD Graphics 530 (rev 06)
DeviceName: Onboard IGD
Subsystem: Lenovo HD Graphics 530
Kernel driver in use: i915
Kernel modules: i915
00:14.0 USB controller: Intel Corporation 100 Series/C230 Series Chipset Family USB 3.0 xHCI Controller (rev 31)
Then, if you have the folder and files, can you check what vainfo outputs on your machine ? (you can try both on your host and inside the container)
That way youāll know if it libraries and permissions are correct.
On my machine it outputs this:
$ vainfo
error: can't connect to X server!

On another machine without a correct vaapi install it outputs this:
$ vainfo
Trying display: wayland
Trying display: x11
libva error: vaGetDriverNameByIndex() failed with unknown libva error, driver_name = (null)
vaInitialize failed with error code -1 (unknown libva error),exit
You can also check that your ffmpeg has been built with vaapi support using ffmpeg -encoders| grep _vaapi, it should list somehting like that:
$ ffmpeg -encoders| grep _vaapi

Finally, you can try encoding a file manually using ffmpeg to check if is works. See here for example commands on how to use ffmpeg to encode files using vaapi.
