Hi wouter
1  I don't know  whether the VAAPI can use be uesd in  chromuim or not  . but I will have a try later.
2  Yes ,please remove /etc/apt/apt.conf,that is my fault . I should delete it when the firmware was  build .
   we  build a proxy server to accelerate the speed when we use the "apt" command.
