HEVC Main 10 video playback is heavily stuttering
Hi! I am using Edge 87 on Windows 10 20H2 with HEVC plug-in installed from Microsoft store. Like the title mentioned, HEVC Main 10 video playback became heavily stuttering during recent updates. ...
HotCakeX Thanks for bringing the flags below to my attention.
edge://flags/#d3d11-video-decoder
edge://flags/#disable-accelerated-video-decode
I had one site that was acting like it was having buffering issues on a high-speed line. The same site had no issues in Firefox. Your post saved me from having to reinstall Chrome to see if it was Edge specific. After some experimentation I found that edge://flags/#disable-accelerated-video-decode fixed the issue entirely for Edge.
It could still be a buffering issue with how the handoff to the acceleration is performed, but this seems to have confirmed that it was not a basic video buffering issue.
You're welcome, good to hear that,
with this flag set to disabled:
edge://flags/#disable-accelerated-video-decode
I can't play HEVC content in Edge at all.

HEVC in Edge is only supported by hardware decoders.
