  • nvidia-vaapi-driver

    A VA-API implemention using NVIDIA's NVDEC

    • You can try nvidia-vaapi-driver, a VA-API driver for NVDEC which works very well.

  • ff2mpv

    A Firefox/Chrome add-on for playing URLs in mpv.

    • If Firefox still uses too much CPU, then I recommend ff2mpv -- It does require changing your habits a bit, like blocking autoplay and clicking ff2mpv to launch the video in mpv when you're ready to watch, but it is well worth it.
