AV1 Webm Video stuck or stuttering

Recently I wanted to watch a AV1 Video in 4k, no matter if in mp4 or webm format, it will always stutter or even stuck no matter which player I use. SMplayer only stutters badly while vlc and firefox stuck at some point. I use an Intel Arc 750 and Intel 11400 i5 CPU with 16 gb ram should be enough power. Perhaps you can point me in a direction, may not be blendOS specific but perhaps more wayland or so, thanks in advance

Nvidia GPU multiboot issue

After installing BlendOS the system boots fine. The issue occurs every other time of booting after this first time. I have 2 SSDs in my computer, one that has Windows 10 installed & one that has BlendOS installed. I get this error when trying to boot [FAILED] error failed to start generate locales using locale-gen. After looking for solutions online the issue seems to be something to do with locale-gen failing to execute due to the read-only file system. When run manually it shows the error that it cannot create a temporary file it needs. I found this thread on the TuxDigital community forum. Anyone have any ideas on how to fix this as a user or what I can do to help the devs fix this?...

I've just tried Blend OS and I have some noob questions

1. Why isn't the KDE screenshot tool pre-installed but Electron25 is? 2. How to I install input methods like Fcitx5 or IBus? 3. How to remove Electron25 and other pre-installed software that I don't need? 4. How do I install Power Profile for KDE Plasma?...

Why is this working now?

Hey Guys, Recently switched from Mint to BlendOS. I am a musician and have hooked up a M-Audio fw1814 Interface connected via VIA:D Firewire Card to my PC. For these cards to control all of their in and output channels you have to use the program ffado. Now on each boot when the pc was not in use for longer, ffado would not run no matter if in pipewire on blendos or pulse audio/Alsa/Jack on mint. The errors always were something like no dbus connection, unfortunately I forgot to take a screenshot and now cant reproduce it. Had to reboot then ffado worked like it should. Since yesterday, Jan 5, the issue isn't present at all on Blendos. No matter how long the PC is shut off even if its totally disconnected from power, ffado works at every boot. Now I want to desperately know why this works now, I tried to solve it for years and now it fixed itself somehow....
