I've fixed the XVFB issue in https://gerrit.wikimedia.org/r/c/mediawiki/core/+/1147173 it's good if that gets merged before we start. With the changes we do, we will disable videos by default and make it easier to enable videos when needed. And then if you run multiple instances, it will be great that the videos actually works.
