Easiest way is to use Chrome or a Chrome based browser since they bundle codecs with the browser. If you're using Firefox, need to make sure you have the codecs. I know nothing about Mint specifically though to know if they'd automatically install codecs or not.
- lights0123 1y agoYou specifically don't want to use the bundled codecs since those would be CPU decode only.
- throwawaylaptop 1y agoInteresting. I'll look into that more.
- dismalaf 1y agoStraight up false. I have both Chrome and Vivaldi installed on Linux, both have hardware video decoding on OOTB... You check it by putting chrome://gpu in the address bar.
- throwawaylaptop 1y agoIm using Brave and it seems the enable hardware acceleration box is checked.
