It sounds like your hardware should be capable of H.264 hardware encoding.

I would recommend:

  1. Remove PPAs from your system so that we can support you, and so that you can log bugs.

  2. Log a bug using this command: ubuntu-bug mesa

I’ve moved this to the https://community.ubuntu.com/c/support-help-requests category because this site isn’t designed to take tech support questions. Sorry. I’d recommend using one of the official support channels listed on the https://community.ubuntu.com/t/finding-help/712 page
