Solved Very high CPU usage during video play.

I have FrankenPad with T480 board and no nvidia chip, only intel but i have very high CPU usage during Youtube plays ( firefox, chromium,qutebrowser) and sometimes it gets so bad my laptop crashes or have brain-freeze for a moment
OS - FreeBSD 14.2 RELEASE
Is this how supposed to be or i can do some adjustments ?
Snippet of rc.conf:
Code: 
microcode_update_enable="YES"
kld_list="i915kms acpi_video fusefs"
powerd_flags="-a hiadaptive -b adaptive"
performance_cx_lowest="Cmax"
economy_cx_lowest="Cmax"
 
At first glance that looks correct. But having i915kms in kld_list is not a guarantee it's actually being loaded and used. Can you see the module with kldstat and see it gets used in /var/log/Xorg.0.log?

It will use the modesetting(4) driver. If not it falls back on scfb(4).

It's looking for x11-drivers/xf86-video-intel, but you shouldn't need that, so the "error" is fine.

Don't use xf86-video-intel driver. Use drm driver and install libva-intel, libvdpau-va-gl then check the hardware capabilities using vdpauinfo

I think your UHD 620 doesn't support hardware decoding for Youtube and that's why you are seeing high cpu usage.

here's what works on my old laptop.

most of the videos are using av1 and vp9 some old clips are in avc (h.264). You can right click on the video and check the statistics to see the codec.
