Chromium GPU acceleration on RPI3/RPI4

[nandra]

Hi,

this is not an issue more question. I would like to ask if anyone have experience with gpu acceleration in chromium using this layer. Using proprietary broadcom or VC4? How about playing like 4K video on RPI4?

Thanks.

On Raspi 4:
Had trouble with (use-)egl. After disabling [1] - chrome://gpu/ says it is accelerated and WebGL [2] is up to 10 times faster as with egl.
