As there is no RV V extension on the Vision5, the only realistic mean to decode video at high resolution is probably to use the hardware decoder.

Is there any documentation how to access it? I see that there’s related code in the Freelight SDK… I tried to compile the out-of-tree kernel driver but it refuses to load on the Vision5 kernel. I suspect that the Device Tree is incomplete or wrong.

Yes, the freelight-u-sdk v2.1.0 already supports video decode and encode，you can compile it follow the instruction: https://github.com/starfive-tech/freelight-u-sdk/
