Make sure that h264ify is enabled, so YouTube uses h264-encoded videos for which the Raspberry Pi supports hardware-accelerated video decode.ģ. Full screen single process single window. Ensure that the h264ify Chromium extension is enabled.Ĭhromium on Raspberry Pi OS comes with uBlock Origin and h264ify extensions installed by default. Movavi Video Suite supports hardware acceleration provided by Intel multi-core processors and integrated graphics, which allows for faster encoding/decoding, as well as simultaneous conversion of a large number of files by employing the full power of each core.
#Full screen hardware acceleration install
For Raspberry Pi 4 there's no need to install extra packages, enable OpenGL, and so on, as those are already enabled. Raspberry Pi OS comes with everything that's needed to run Chromium with hardware acceleration on a Raspberry Pi 4, but it doesn't work out of the box. As a side note, this is a prerequisite for an article I plan on writing soon. In my case, using a Raspberry Pi 4 Model B, the main Chromium gpu and renderer processes went down from ~160% and ~130% to under ~30% and 23% CPU usage (according to htop) after enabling hardware acceleration.

This article explains how to enable hardware acceleration in Chromium browser running on Raspberry Pi OS (for Raspberry Pi 4).īy enabling GPU acceleration, the CPU usage should be much lower when playing supported videos (for example on YouTube).
