You need to share the VLC logs then.

fine, that’s almost the same I am observing. And almost same pattern with 5k player.
How is that surprising since that's an hidden VLC inside

Processor: Intel(R) Core(TM) i5-8265U CPU @ 1.60GHz (8 CPUs), ~1.8GHz
If that's AV1 >= 4K or any other codec 8K, that's CPU decoded.
I don't think low power CPU can do this, even with 8 threads.

The downloaded 4k-Youtube-Video "COSTA RICA IN 4K 60fps HDR (ULTRA HD).mp4" start and play for some Secounds, bevor the Image stand and the Audio plays alone.

I tested with "D3D9 Output" in VLC-Player 3.0.11 (64-Bit) and got 100% CPU-Power with 15% GPU-usage.

- Windows 10
- CPU Intel Core i7-9700
- Intel UHD Graphics 630
- 25"-Monitor 2.560×1.440 Pixel
Content is 10-Bit 60 fps AV1.
I highly doubt even 8 full cores from i7-9700 can achieve this in real time

No SIMD for AV1 10bit yet.

No issue then, that can't work.

Amazing, after download and install the "AV1 Codec" I could play the 4k Video in "Movies & TV" with constantly, small Jerks in my other Computer.

Windows 10
Intel Core i5-2500 CPU @ 3.30GHz
NVIDIA GeForce GTX 750 Ti
25"-Monitor 2.560×1.440 Pixel

CPU Workload: 53%
GPU Workload: 15-32%

Maybe not, but the point is that it's playing better with any other player.

No, since movie and TV app can do the job, issue is with VLC - exactly as mentioned in ticket.

Yes, exact same video shared at https://e.pcloud.link/publink/show?code ... YH0kzwkc9y is playing fine on my DS10U5 with with "movie & TV" app.
But same video with VLC goes to appr. 100% CPU since GPU apparently is not used.

Hi forum
I see following note in ticket
“10bit 60fps AV1 without SIMD..
wait for 10 bit SIMD”
When is support of this expected?
