You state multiple times that the Raspberry Pi 3 does not support hardware accelerated h264 decoding, but that's simply not true. All Pis (except Pico series)

All Pis (except Pico series) support both accelerated encoding and decoding, and have done so since 2012. The Broadcom VideoCore IV in RPi 3 Model B does hw decode at 1080p30.
