I will do that. Is it a stronger RPi or what?

The Fire has an Adreno 320 GPU on its SoC (the Qualcomm APQ8064 also known as S4 Pro) and its a very good GPU but does not hard decode HEVC... The support for HEVC starts with the 330 model :/ https://www.qualcomm.com/products/snapdragon/processors/comparison

Ah, shit, I see ... What a pity. I thought because of the ARM technology it would be fine.
