All I-frames are OK, other display only garbage: the VP9 decoding is broken. This is at least not a regression from 2.6.16 I've briefly tested with a VP9 video from YouTube.

Encoding with x264 is unrelated.

This problem was reported as early as in January 2016: VP9 is Scrambled (http://avidemux.org/smif/index.php?topic=16579.0). I wonder if it was really (working (http://avidemux.org/smif/index.php/topic,17015.msg76325.html#msg76325)) for a while and then got broken again. The issue still persists.

Done a larger test (350 MB) webm vp9 to H264.
Took 6 minutes with Nvidia H264.
Don't forget to check quality of video! Out of the box going from 25.5 Mbps vp9 to 8.241 Mbps h264 is a big image quality drop. Visual pixelation, visual squares, ....
