Thank you all for your efforts! My laptop consists of AMD integrated graphics and NVIDIA discrete graphics, and I need NVIDIA's dGPU to hard decode for my firefox, so I'm trying to use vainfo to check that the vaapi is working, and I think I'm running into a problem.
Here are the details:

I'm not quite sure the reason for this, it seems amd's iGpu is recognised as a DRM device. It's a bit mind boggling.

  • Execute vainfo for the specified DRM device
    vainfo --display drm --device /dev/dri/renderD128

      VAProfileHEVCMain444_12         :	VAEntrypointVLD

Obviously, it worked. Now the big question becomes how to set the DRM device to /dev/dri/renderD128.
This seems like a strange issue, it seems that /dev/dri/renderD128 can be set as the default DRM device via an environment variable. But I failed, I tried WLR_DRM_DEVICES (which caused Hyprland to crash), MOZ_DRM_DEVICE (which didn't seem to have any effect,Firefox still doesn't try to hard-decode, even though I've set it up.).

I am noticing a similar issue, but I only have one GPU in my system.

Unfortunately multiple GPUs can pose a problem. Firefox seems to only want to run on the default device, and if that device isn't the NVIDIA one, then even if you set the correct NVD_GPU settings, Firefox won't be able to import the frames that the driver exports.

I actually got it to work.

It was very hard, but I did it:

I use floorp, firefox fork
