1. H.264 Hardware Acceleration
It requires GPU; NVIDIA GeForce 9400M, GeForce 320M, GeForce GT 330M, ATI HD Radeon GFX, Intel HD Graphics and others.
It seems that macOS 10.9 or later requires more power of GPU. So, in case of old model’s GPU (for example, ’NVIDIA GeForce 9400M’) this feature works well only at ‘Native’ mode.
At ‘Native’ mode, it requires M4V, MP4 or MOV types encoded in H.264 and AAC/ALAC
At ‘FFmpeg’ mode, it requires the video encoded in H.264.
If the video track was encoded in settings that the macOS doesn’t support, it may not be supported.
If it is not supported, playback and navigating may not be smooth according to the cpu. (especially when it plays 1080p
