As already mentioned, the hardware acceleration of your browser can
apparently not be captured.

You're using gdigrab for video. Have you tried adding the dshow capture
device?
https://github.com/rdp/screen-capture-recorder-to-video-windows-free

If you install it, your "ffmpeg -list_devices true -f dshow -i dummy"
should show a new video device "screen-capture-recorder". Perhaps that
works for you. (I have no experience with it - it may suffer the same
limitation. Please do report.)
