Hi all,
I use version 20.04 (beta 2 with latest updates) on the Raspberry Pi 4 (8GB), and I started off using Firefox, but the video acceleration on that is absolutely terrible for some reason (especially 1080p50) on sites like Youtube. I tried enabling various acceleration options in config too but didn't make it any better...
Later on, I installed the Chromium snap and enabled video and rasterizing acceleration in flags and the difference is like night and day! 1080p50 or 60 video in YouTube is completely smooth with no frame drop...
Does anyone know why Firefox video works so poorly and is there any way to improve it to work as well as Chromium?
TIA for any ideas!
MATE is a great distribution and happy to support it.
