[BUG] video playback broken (Pixel 4a || Bliss v17.2 & Bliss v17.3)

[Ciancy28]

Issue type

Device-specific issue

Device

Pixel 4a (sunfish)

Bliss build

Bliss-v17.3-sunfish-OFFICIAL-gapps-20240317

Bug Description

h264 decoding/playback fails most of the time, vp8/vp9/h265 playback seems fine
EDIT: I'm now getting decoding failures with vp9 and other codecs as well, it just happens less often
30 fps video playback also seems to bring the screen refreshrate down to 30 hz (making the entire device laggy) until a 60 fps video is played, this is due to some android feature designed for variable refresh rate displays that should be disabled on the 4a as it only features a constant refresh rate 60 hz screen
Issue was also present in the previous build

Steps to reproduce

play an h264 encoded video in any app

Expected Behavior

the video should play

Current Behavior

video playback stops, newpipe and telegram x both display a media decoding failure error message
the logcat was taken while attempting to playback a 384x384 video message on telegram x

Possible Solution

Evolution X mantainer might have one, both issues were present and fixed in that rom

In case you weren't aware of this, I think that should get you notified

rest of the rom works perfectly and I'm very happy with it, thanks for your work.
