Graphics, sound and multimedia • Re: Raspberry Pi 5 and the Lack of Hardware H.264 Decoding – A Huge Step Backward

Oddly, when I passed the OP through an AI detector, one said it was 100% AI, the other said 35% AI.

Anyway, the quad A76's of the Pi 5 are capable of higher resolution and higher quality decodes than the HW block on the previous models. The HW block could only do 1080p, the Pi5 can do 4k IIRC. But TBH, for that sort of stuff you should be using HEVC anyway. You can decode 4 1080p60 streams of HEVC and display them easily.
