I don't think so. This is just video playback using the Cedrus Video Processing Unit (VPU) of the PinePhone's Allwinner A64 chipset. That said, there's still hope for overall better speed with GTK4 which can be GPU accelerated and all the little kernel tweaks people like Megi thankfully spend their time on to make PinePhone better.
