I found this link about changes to the AMD driver in 6.5 kernel. https://www.phoronix.com/review/linux65-ryzen-7950x "One of the notable changes with this new kernel version is Linux now defaulting to the AMD P-State "EPP" active driver configuration for modern Ryzen systems rather than the long-used generic ACPI CPUFreq driver default. " I wonder if these changes, while good in most cases, might be causing you problems. Do you have a 6.4 kernel that you can boot and test with? If you do, and it works as you are expecting, then you could open a bugzilla against the kernel to bring your problem to the attention of the kernel developers. Alternatively, perhaps there is some cruft left over after the update. What happens if you create a new user, and then use that new user to try to play two videos together? ___ users mailing list -- users@lists.fedoraproject.org To unsubscribe send an email to users-le...@lists.fedoraproject.org Fedora Code of Conduct: https://docs.fedoraproject.org/en-US/project/code-of-conduct/ List Guidelines: https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Mailing_list_guidelines List Archives: https://lists.fedoraproject.org/archives/list/users@lists.fedoraproject.org Do not reply to spam, report it: https://pagure.io/fedora-infrastructure/new_issue

Re: 4k video playback on some videos makes entire system sluggish
I did not look at the size, I was looking for the encoder since that was likely to be what was causing his issue. I just checked and the width and height are close to 4k. Really anything close to and/or over 2500 x 1440 is probably close enough to 4k from the point of view of trying to play it.

Re: 4k video playback on some videos makes entire system sluggish
what does vainfo show? You may need to install it. You are looking for something like below, I believe the main10 is what is needed for your video. VAProfileHEVCMain : VAEntrypointVLD VAProfileHEVCMain10 : VAEntrypointVLD You may need to then confirm that your given video card supports those decoders.

4k video playback on some videos makes entire system sluggish
Hi, I have a fedora38 desktop and having a problem playing 4k videos. When playing some videos, my entire system becomes sluggish and slow to respond, like the system is under extreme load or all resources are consumed by graphics rendering. This is the lspci info for my video card: 07:00.0 VGA compatible controller: Advanced Micro Devices, Inc. [AMD/ATI] Ellesmere [Radeon RX 470/480/570/570X/580/580X/590] (rev ef) CPU utilization doesn't appear to be a problem, so really have no idea why this is happening. Perhaps a missing codec? How do I control hardware rendering? What other information can I provide to help troubleshoot this? ___ users mailing list -- users@lists.fedoraproject.org To unsubscribe send an email to users-le...@lists.fedoraproject.org Fedora Code of Conduct: https://docs.fedoraproject.org/en-US/project/code-of-conduct/ List Guidelines: https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Mailing_list_guidelines List Archives: https://lists.fedoraproject.org/archives/list/users@lists.fedoraproject.org Do not reply to spam, report it: https://pagure.io/fedora-infrastructure/new_issue
