Raspberry Pi (RPi) computers can run UxPlay with software decoding
of h264 video but this
usually has unacceptable latency, and hardware-accelerated GPU decoding
should be used. Distributions such as RPi OS (Bullseye) release have
recently dropped support for 32-bit-only OpenMAX (omx) GPU decoding (used by RPiPlay), in
