Rpi4 and h264/vc1 support

  • Hi. Rpi4 has h264 hw support up to 1080p, but how does it handle vc1 software 1080p, can it manage it without struggle?

    Reason for asking Its impossible to buy a rpi3 now, so the rpi4 is the closest. Im not interested in 4K, only being able to play vc1 1080p smooth...

    Of course i can buy a pc for like $ 500 , but i dont want to spend so much, and dont have place for pc .

  • no need to answer, thanks, Ive read in another thread here that rpi4 is not up to the job without stuggle. I dont want the CPU to work hard anyway.

    I will buy a PC instead for the job, or wait till I can buy a rpi3 instead.

    Thanks.
