IINA got updated with the latest ffmpeg that supports hardware acceleration 2 days ago.
These numbers focus on the difference between hardware accelerated and non-hardware accelerated decoding of HEVC 4K UHD content. IINA is as of now my favourite media player but I have to mention something else. The numbers above do not justify how good of a player QuickTime is in terms of efficiency. Most of the media that I download off the internet are in mp4 container. The lack of customisable controls and horrible format support always bothers me but man QT is efficient when it comes to resource usage. From what I've seen, it typically uses 4-6 times less resource than IINA.
I've noticed some crashes in IINA and abnormal gamma shift(?) causing the image to be unrealistically vibrant from time to time. But apart from that, these macbooks can play 4k HEVC just fine now.
