The GTK4 media backend is not pre-installed on some distributions (such as PopOS).To install the backend:
sudo apt install libgtk-4-media-gstreamer
-
High CPU usage during video playback (proprietary NVIDIA)
Your hardware acceleration may not work properly, see this issue.To delete the GStreamer cache:
rm -rf ~/.cache/gstreamer-1.0/
After that, check ifgst-inspect-1.0 nvcodec
reports all its features. -

Optimization
Hanabi extension can utilize clappersink
from Clapper for the best performance if installed.
For this to work, Clapper must be installed from the package manager and not from Flatpak/Snap.
