New EVA1 3.0 Firmware Updates Look Impressive!

Latest intel processors have a decode chip for h265

:10 vs 1:10 the coloring shifts

Anyway...

interesting on the HEVC, I am looking forward to testing 4K VFR with this as well as editing performance on my system. Surprised that it plays better for you, that seems odd...

But don't they also have this for h.264? It would seem the latest would still be faster at the older, easier codec?

They do for 8bit h264 but 10 bit on FCPX uses a lot of processor and GPU.

Interesting! Any chance this is due to 420 vs 422?

I think it’s because of the special implementation of h264 the EVA1 / GH5 use. 10bit 422 1080p h264 blazes on FCPX
