Hello Everyone,
I saw a post where switching on Vulkan improved YouTube Playback in Chromium this turned out to lead to a rabbit hole where my chromium is misconfigured.
We have a Raspberry Pi 5 8GB with all Official accessories save the Argon One Case. So keyboard mouse power supply and SD Card are all official. I'm running fully updated Raspberry Pi OS 64 bit Bookworm.
What have I tried. I did the apt purge chromium and reinstalled via the Recommend Software tool. this did nothing chromium ran the same.
The other thing I tried was to remove the ~/.config/chromium folder that changes things
I've been testing with the https://webglsamples.org/dynamic-cubema ... bemap.html
Current set up I get 10 fps
No .config/chromium Doesn't work at all
Same test on firefox I get 60 fps
So I have to get into the chromium folder and change something but what? I don't want to loose all my bookmarks, saved credentials, ect.
There has to be a way to fix this properly, No?
This is the start of the journey for context viewtopic.php?p=2327230#p2326407
Any help would be appreciated
