To reduce frame decoding time for bitstreams greater than 100 Mb/s at 4kP30, use the following options:

  • Increase internal decoder buffers (internal-entropy-buffers parameter) to 9 or 10.
  • Add a queue at the decoder input side

The following command decodes an H.264 MP4 file using an increased number of internal entropy buffers and displays it via DisplayPort.
