No point in reporting this bug upstream, they will not be able to
reproduce it as it's related to the hardware video acceleration patch
that Debian has recently started applying on top of the upstream
Chromium: 
https://salsa.debian.org/chromium-team/chromium/blob/c88b97a6dc183a6a7f8a05aee9e99957285a9371/debian/patches/fixes/vaapi.patch

As I can see, there are two possibilities here:
1. the patch got broken in Chromium 79, in which case it needs to be
updated and fixed
2. the issue is not with Chromium but the VAAPI library or the
hardware you use, in which case you could make Chromium use different
GPU (integrated graphics) or disable hardware video acceleration
altogether, either by passing some flag to Chromium (removing
--ignore-gpu-blacklist from /etc/chromium.d/default-flags might work
too) or rebuilding Chromium without the patch
