Oh, I didn’t know about that ! Thanks for the detailed answer ! How can I check what video format is supported on the hardware level by my graphics card ? Is there a command that tell it to me ?
@BuboScandiacus I don't know about a command that can do that, but usually the manufacturer will have that information. Search the video decoding capabilities of your GPU's chipset. Mine is an Acer Predator Bifrost with an AMD Radeon 7600 chipset, so I search "Radeon 7600 video decoding". Usually your fetch program can tell you what your graphics card is, but sometimes it can't tell. Mine can't tell what exactly my graphics card is, but I can still find out by reading what it says on the graphics card itself or the box it came in.
Thank you once again !
