Use the dockerized ffmpeg with precompiled vaapi support, adjust /dev/video2

alias ffmpeg='docker run --rm -w $(pwd) -v $(pwd):$(pwd) --device=/dev/dri --device=/dev/video2 jrottenberg/ffmpeg:vaapi'

Adjust /dev/video2, -video_size 1920x1080 -framerate 60 and stream to peertube (if it can handle that much)
