Any new or upcoming tablets support x265 hardware decoding yet?


Recommended Posts

I started digging, found this chart F6bHk20.png

 

The MediaTek MT8127 quad-core ARM processors support HEVC decoding for tablets. Most new devices will have no such issues, if you are playing the content from local storage. If its over the network that is where you could have some problems.

 

like I mentioned in your other thread, that you seemed to have abondoned and instead of going back to it, created a new one asking the same question. You have a habit of disappearing from threads without any answers, when people spend time finding the information for you, but you either dont come back to give an update or create a new thread.

 

Ill leave you with that chart, and the power of google.

You're right, I've been selfish recently. Your contributions have not gone unnoticed (Y) I appreciate them, thank you.

Also add the Lenovo Tab 2 A7-30F (MT8127).  This is one I personally own. (See "Lenovo Tab2 A7-30F - Not Samsung, Not ASUS, But Not Bad At All") While there are no community ROMs for it, there is support for TWRP (unofficial) - stock ROMs halt at Lollipop.  It is rather old (it dates back to 2014) and was basically replaced by the Tab3 and Tab4 of the same size; however, it can still be found (even new) on Amazon for $100USD or less; still, the same is true of the Tab3 and Tab4 (which have the more *beloved* Qualcomm SoC).
