Are you sure, that you start that from a running desktop with the user logged in? The procedure is as follows:
a) Find out, that other players that use VAAPI decoding are also affected xor are not affected.
b) If all players you tested are affected, file a bug with the VAAPI people on bugs.freedesktop.org where you provide the screenshot comparison. They then will ask you to test with gstreamer.
If you followed my howto in post 1 - the user is "kodi" and it has to be in the video / audio group. if you cannot connect to the X display then you have configuration issue on top.
Edit: And something else to care for irritated users: VDPAU obviously works cause it won't open on intel gpus and kodi falls back to SW - so VDPAU is the same as SW decoding on intel vaapi hardware.
