video player using metal

Hey, everyone!

I would like to build a h.264 video player that uses as little laptop energy as possible.

I have a program that has about 50% worse CPU usage than QuickTime, and I'd to make it better.

Can you fix my issue?

What would you use Metal for? Color management?


H.264 decoding is not something a GPU can do easily. The good news is that almost every Mac includes a ASIC H.264 decoder, you can use it with the Video Toolbox API.
