Closed issue by jsumners on void-packages repository

https://github.com/void-linux/void-packages/issues/37255

Description:
Yesterday I updated a system to use a Pentium G7400:
+ https://www.intel.com/content/www/us/en/products/sku/219435/intel-pentium-gold-g7400-processor-6m-cache-3-70-ghz/specifications.html
+ https://www.chipguider.com/?proc=intel-pentium-gold-g7400

I spent many hours trying to figure out why no video player (Kodi, VLC, etc.) could properly play any videos using hardware acceleration. With hardware acceleration enabled, all videos would show either a solid green or black image. This morning I determined that Void is distributing an old version of the `intel-media-driver`: 21.3.5.

It looks like there was a revert of this driver from 22.1.1 in mid February https://github.com/void-linux/void-packages/pull/35433

I built a local version of the package for the current 22.3.1 release, installed it, and tested the same videos. With the new driver installed the videos play correctly using hardware acceleration.
