Im not sure whats going on here but only vlc plays smooth and eats up almost nothing in recources
chrome almost plays smoothly but eats up all my cpu and gpu
and firefox doesnt eat up as much but stutters very hard
hardware accleration is turned on in chrome and firefox i have checked
Only one video player is playing in each screenshot and i have manager showing usage in bottom right corner in each screenshot
Could you please do the following:
Post the output of
chrome://gpu in chrome
about:support in firefox
And also, enable the “stats for nerds” in youtube and post the output here.
Looks like its just my wifi i tried playing back the local version that i was playing in vlc in chrome and firefox and got way different results i just dont completely understand why it maxes out gpu and cpu when its waiting on data from the internet for playback of the video results seem pretty consistant when all three playbacks are from my hdd
Again, give us the stats for nerds info. It could very well be the downloaded version and the streamed version are using different codecs and containers.
We need you to also post the VLC stats. It could very well be that the video is only available at 4K using vp9 and vorbis and VLC fallbacks to 1080p as well to do hardware decoding.
