In this post my logs from trying to play VC1 file:
vp9 != av1 != vc1
So what now?
Sample and log always with last nightly is required!
Your sample works in NO nightly 20250317 running @N2
Played your test file on N2+, nightly of 17th.
Software decoding is fine, plays fine.
It’s broken on SC2 only, but will work with tomorrow nightly again.
The log is right there in my post…
And logs:- https://paste.coreelec.org/WhiskySwearing
Is your log about vc1?
No sorry, AV1.
Which AV1 or VC1 you don’t say in your post.
VC-1 Apologies. Will try a couple of ‘clean’ installs and report later.
VC-1 wont open, hangs when trying to play, exit out. Prev issue.

Set Accelerate VC1 to Never in the video settings
Setting + Players + videos → Accelerate VC1 =Never
@crazyturk . Well that helped 99%. Can play all my VC1 files but 1.
That one sound is good but video drags behind in slow motion. Cheers.
I will stop there atm and concentrate on trying to get a WMC remote to work properly. Currently a bit hit and miss in NO for me.
@Portisch . I am sure that log was from the latest. Internet is slower here in OZ

VC-1 will be reworked with tomorrow nightly. Hopefully finally.
All medias samples I have play normal with hardware decoder now.

Here’s the Eagles one that gave me the most trouble.
Try to play it with VLC or some other players.
Found a lot of issues - only sound, only video …
Found two older players working:
MPC-BE 64 Bit Version MPC-BE download | SourceForge.net
and the very old MPC-HC from 2017
Maybe the encoding isn´t OK ?
Beelink GT King S922X: 22.0-Piers_nightly_20250318 - plays this sample without any problems
Tox3 905x4_4Gb: 22.0-Piers_nightly_20250318 - does not play this sample
info : CAESinkALSA::InitializeHW - Your hardware does not support AE_FMT_FLOAT, trying other formats
info : CAESinkALSA::InitializeHW - Using data format AE_FMT_S24NE4
MPC-HC 2.4.0 + LAV 0.79.2 plays this sample without any problems
As an aside (don’t shoot the messenger) - an Odroid N2 running ng 21.2 Omega, plays this file with perfect video and audio using the HW decoder.
