3b+ Cannot playback video smoothly?
I have a Raspberry pi 3b+ with latest 64-bit OS (dec 5 2023).
No matter what I try, I cannot get vlc player to playback 1080p h.264 .mov files even remotely smoothly. Its basically stop motion animation.
This is on a clean install, fresh boot, nothing else running.
In fact, the performance is pretty terrible for anything. Opening any website in chromium is very slow.
Previously I was getting low voltage warnings, so I thought maybe it was throttling... So I just bought a new official PSU and there are no more warnings now, but the performance is still awful.
Is this typical? I read about all these people playing videos fine, and even doing much more intensive tasks...
I'm wondering if I got a bad unit, or I'm doing something wrong...
I've been trying to get this working all day, and have made no progress. Any ideas?
