Sorry, I didn’t realize you were using Google Chrome.
In that case, I don’t know if you can directly check the hardware acceleration status in the browser. You can use the vainfo command to check it.
Additionally on Firefox, you can check it by opening a new tab and entering about:support in the address bar. This will bring you to the troubleshooting page where you can find the Media section.
Find it on Arch Wiki:
To check if it is working play a video which is using a codec supported by your VA-API driver (vainfo tells you which codecs are supported, but Chromium will only support VP9 and h264):
Open the DevTools by pressing Ctrl+Shift+I or on the Inspect button of the context (right-click) menu
Add the Media inspection tab: Hamburger menu > More tools > Media
In the newly opened Media tab, look at the hardware decoder state of the video decoder

I think vainfo output is fine, so the issue may be with Google Chrome.
Try running Chrome from the command line with the --enable-features=VaapiVideoDecodeLinuxGL flag.
You can find more info here

Thank you for your help. One last thing, and sorry for bothering you. Is there a way to run this command automatically when the browser is running directly?

Did it work?
You can create a google-chrome.desktop file in ~/.local/share/applications/ to include the flag. It should be something like this:
[Desktop Entry]
Exec=google-chrome --enable-features=VaapiVideoDecodeLinuxGL
Name=google-chrome
NoDisplay=true
Type=Application
