We should probably disable that h264ify plugin as the pi5 doesn't decode that in hardware. Chromium on raspberry pi os has the best TH-cam playback of the two browsers and OSes in my opinion. Ubuntu for pi 5 still doesn't control the Active Cooler as of 4/11/2023.
I'm still a little skeptical on RPi5, but it's off to a good start. I still think OPi5 SoC is superior though, but what good is superior hardware without support? So I'm still undecided...hoping more ppl pick up the OPi5 and other Rockchip 3588 boards and get more software and community support. Competition is good for the consumer. Either way, not cancelling my RPi5 8gb and hope I get it soon, maybe even first batch but I have my doubts...
The Canonical developer said today on Tom's hardware podcast that he wasn't sent an active cooler with his board so couldn't code fan controls. So it defaults to the fastest spin
Will we have to wait 9 months for the next Ubuntu release to have the fan running at 100 percent fixed? I'm new to Linux and don't know how patches work on the os.
I was hoping you would test h264 video in FF and show the CPU load. They say it has hardware acceleration through V4L2 M2M, but so far I never managed to get it working on a Pi 4 (and I'm still waiting for my Pi 5 to arrive). I think I'll try Ubuntu 23.10 soon on my Pi 4.
Look, wanting to be fair. Show cpu usage when doing video decoding. Rpi5 can only decode on hw h265, everything else runs on sw decoding, so we need to know the cpu consumption when you do that stuff. Also power consumption would be cool.
I've tested it on my Pi4 (Installed from Source on RetroPie) and the performance was terrible. They updated the settings but it was 1/4 slower and on the Pi4 you obviously cannot afford losing that mich performance. Now I am back on the binary again.

I tried booting up Ubuntu 23.10 written to micro sd card inserted into USB adapter, it doesn't boot up. But the same micro sd card boots up fine from the micro sd slot on my RPi 4B 8GB.
That first video didn't look totally smooth but that could be down to the capture card. I'm still of the mind that this was a very rushed product, where the official software just doesn't do what the hardware indicates. With a small outfit like Orange Pi, even though still not acceptable, for a global brand like the Pi Foundations, so much more unacceptable.
I did manage to get Ubuntu to run on a 400+ gig ssd on my Pi4 w/8gig. I could not get the store to load and I continually experienced freezing and had to cut power. Very frustrating.

Rpi5 dropped h264 hw dec/enc entirely. It only decodes h265 on hw
I remember that the p4 is known to just not have hardware decoders for video. The pi3 had them locked under a licence but they dropped it on the pi4.
Look, wanting to be fair. Show cpu usage when doing video decoding. Rpi5 can only decode on hw h265, everything else runs on sw decoding, so we need to know the cpu consumption when you do that stuff. Also power consumption would be cool.
The brave browser might be a good shout on the pi due to its built in adblocking.
In the lates update of Ubuntu the fan isn't always on. The only thing I miss is DRM playback.
