Is Peertube playback more efficient than YouTube on older hardware?

[–] possiblylinux127@lemmy.zip 7 points 2 months ago

Probably not

The issue is that the GPU is to old to support modern codices

This stream at least looks to be h264 only, which is more likely to be hardware decodable with older hardware than the vp9/av1 that Youtube usually uses.
