Description

Before I debug further, I would like to check if H265 hardware acceleration is a supported configuration on HoloLens-2 using FFmpeg?

My Unity running on HL2 using FFmpeg 4.2 and FfmpegInteropX etc, works fine for H264 with hardware acceleration. However, FFmpeg crashes for the H265 RTP video stream.

Research direction

Start with the HoloLens-2 Unity configuration described in the issue: FFmpeg 4.2, FfmpegInteropX, and an H265 RTP stream. Compare it with the working H264 hardware-acceleration configuration and reproduce the reported crash; done means establishing whether this setup is supported and documenting the relevant limitation or next diagnostic step.
