Comment (by Tschuuuls):
This is also broken on M1 Pro, playing at 0.566x.
Safari doesn't have problems playing the same file at 2x speed without
dropping frames. I think it uses Core Media (AVDFrameReceiver and
com.apple.coremedia.videomediaconverter) instead of Video Toolbox to HW
Decode the video.
Safari also plays the "Peru 8K HDR 60FPS (FUHD)._original.webm" file at
<30% CPU load as reported by Activity Monitor while ffmpeg uses >40% in
the benchmark while only managing 0.566x speed.
Maybe someone from the ffmpeg team should look into this and report it to
Apple?
