Can the flatpak client take advantage of hardware decoding? (lemmy.ca)

When I watch videos in jellyfin on my laptop its cooling fan runs pretty much constantly but is silent when I watch a youtube video. Is the flatpak client unable to use the Intel igpu for decoding?

OS is fedora 43 with all the rpm fusion video codec stuff installed.

Got it. That's pretty odd then. The client should use hardware decoding by default. You could try watching from your web browser indtead and see if that helps, I guess.
