same issues with frame drops and high CPU utilization are observed with MPV:

System-wide mesa driver in use:

mesa is compiled with support for: classic, dri3, egl, gallium, gbm, gles1, gles2, llvm and vc4 video card.
It seems like the h264 decoding is not offloaded to the GPU, thus the CPU overload and high frame drop rate. Kernel in use: 4.16.10 on 32bit Gentoo.

Hello, When using the vc4 opensource driver on raspberry pi 3B and playing a movie at anything above 720x576 (Video: h264 (Main) ([27][0][0][0] / 0x001B), yuv420p, 720x576 [SAR 16:11 DAR 20:11], 50 fps, 50 tbr, 90k tbn, 100 tbc) of Input #0, hls,applehttp stream the screen is slow to refresh thus causing slow motion effect. 720p is even worse, not to mention 1080p videos. The player is kodi 17.6 running on xorg server.
At 720p, the 4 CPU cores are at 75-80% utilization.
config.txt is configured with: dtoverlay=vc4-kms-v3d,cma-256
Thank you! -N
