Hey. It took around two months of digging into (sometimes undocumented) APIs to get this one working on the Pi4. The player software ("info-beamer pi") can now use DRM/dispmanx/MMAL to place videos, either decoded using the traditional H264 decoder or the new HEVC decoder, on one or two displays connected to the Pi4. The raw software is also used at the core of the custom info-beamer OS that is used in the "as a service" digital signage solution. On the linked page there's a demo package that you can install with a few clicks on your own Raspberry Pi if you want to try everything out. Happy to answer questions.
