No H.265 4K support for A8 7600 APU with media players, VLC

Hi,

I use VLC to play media content, and when I try to play a 4K film encoded in H.265 it doesn't show anything and just the noise of the film.

I have the latest drivers (today) :

I tried with previous versions too and it doesn't work. I tried other players like the one that comes with Windows and happens the same.

I tried with wifislax to watch the film and it shows the image but, very slowly. Like in slow motion.

I tried disable hardware acceleration, a lot of settings in VLC, but nothing worked (augmenting the caché, ffmpeg without filtering, etc.).

I just saw a review in which H265 was supported the APU A8 7600.

Thanks in advance.

Try Sharks codecs....ADVANCED Codecs for Windows 10, Windows 8.1 and Windows 7

I haven't found anything it won't play...correctly.

I give up. I can't see 4k films with my lovely A8 7600.

With VLC the same.

With Windows Media, video gets in slow motion.

Thanks anyway.

I think you are wasting your time, as far as I can tell you GPU does not support HEVC/H265 decoding which means your CPU has to do it and that is heavy going for even for high end kit. Try googling for more info.

Ok. So I will forget to decode h 265 because the hardware don't support it, it seems. And the APU A8 9700 as a CPU is too slow to handle 4K (I tried 1080 and it goes ok).

It is a pitty because all 4K videos seem to be encoded with H265
