My understanding is that popper/vlc uses mainly CPU for video rendering too. But there may be a difference for apngs, as i think only the selected games wheel is animated (PinballX animates all, so could be up to 5 at a time). Don't really know though. Just my personal opinion, playfield 4k videos at 30fps rather than 60fps isn't really a reduction in quality if the video is just the tables attract mode (so just lights changing) but may be noticeable if you like gameplay videos. Format of the video, audio and length could make a large difference too. For the wheels using compression should be fine (just like a lot of tables use compressed webp images for the playfield in vpx). You may struggle to get the highest quality experience on mid range hardware without some compromises. But like i say, just my opinion... i've never liked having having unnecessarily bloaty files on my system

I will indeed test, as I changed my graphics card last night and it didn't change the lag in PinballX. My hard drive is an SSD, and my RAM is not saturated. My processor may be a bit weak, but I can't change that... I still overclocked it last night to overcome all these problems, but it didn't change anything; the system still lags as much with active Wheels (APNG causes a lot of slowdown), and the overclocking had no improvement. I've used all the options provided to me in this ticket, and the one that will inevitably work, which involves reducing the quality of my media, does not suit me My tables run perfectly in 4K with full graphic options in Visual Pinball. The only solution I have now is to change the frontend because it seems there is an optimization problem of resources in PinballX with my configuration, which I regret I will keep you informed when I have found the solution for my PC, whether on the hardware or software side, perhaps it will help other people
