The hardware acceleration is disabled in driver. Even using VLC you won't have acceleration for HEVC.

That seems like the opposite of what the quoted Reddit post says:
>those with newer machines needed to either have the HEVC codec from the Microsoft Store removed entirely from [Microsoft Media Foundation] or have hardware acceleration disabled
From this it sounds like it's been disabled at a lower level, but Windows still expects it to be there and so fails to decode streams unless hwaccel is disabled
Even on Linux?
Linux doesn't use the same drivers as windows
