Spoke to the engineer tonight.
The ApolloLake fixes will be in the next PMS build/release from what I can see.
There is a fundamental change here for folks to understand.
-
There is an educational change needed here. The i965 driver is old and dated. It shouldn’t be used. The Intel Media Driver is the established replacement for a few years now. Please refrain from i965.

DO NOT USE
VaapiDriver="i965"in Preferences.xml without first checking with first confirming the Intel Media Driver doesn’t work -and- you’ve reached out to us.
There might be an issue here and there but, if we don’t heard about them then we won’t know what needs fixing.
Bottom line – No VaapiDriver="i965" in Preferences.xml should ever be needed.
