    Hi, I was wondering if there's a video player that supports offloading video decoding process to the GPU. I'm trying to play some 1080p videos on my whitebook, but I'm getting a lot of stutters on relatively recent hardware.

    I usually use VLC player, but it does not seem to support GPU decoding. Any suggestions for paid/freeware video players would be great!

    Thank you

    The video file is h.264 in a MKV container.
