MacBook Pro Late 2016 featuring AMD Radeon Pro GPUs does support HEVC 10-bit Hardware Decoding. This means that the vast majority of HEVC videos (coded in 10-bit) can benefit for hardware decoding in these machines and can be watched flawlessly, when compared to software decoding (which makes videos playing sluggish).
When playing HEVC 10-bit videos in Windows 10, via Bootcamp, hardware decoding from the AMD Radeon Pro GPU is used and the video is beautifully played, with very low CPU usage.
MacOS High Sierra does not use AMD Radeon Pro GPU capabilities for video hardware decoding in general. It just use Intel Core processor capabilities. This means that MacBook Pros Late 2016, which feature Intel Skylake processors, are only capable of hardware decoding HEVC 8-bit video. Leaving the 10-bit ones for software decoding, thus almost unplayable.
This petition is to ask Apple to issue a MacOS High Sierra Software Update to support HEVC 10-Bit hardware decoding in the AMD Radeon Pro GPUs, making the MacBook Pro Late 2016 support HEVC 10-bit hardware decoding.

I am gathering data from users across different configurations to prove that this hardware is fully capable of the task. Send a link to this petition to three people who use these machines for video production and tag the Apple Support account on Twitter with your specific playback issues today.

We hit a significant mark today that proves Apple cannot ignore the performance gap on our machines. Post the link to your tech forums and contact your Apple support representative to demand this driver update now.

Not ok to underutilize video hardware for the de facto video standard, especially when your competitor does. Feels like a broken promise for those of us who read the spec sheet.
C’mon Apple, the 2016 TB MBPs can do 10 bit HEVC hardware decode in Windows 10 but not in the much newer High Sierra?

Please Apple, support the HEVC 10-bit hardware decode on the MacBook Pro 2016 15inch. I spend 3600€ ($4160) in this computer, I have two 4k monitors and a Sony camera, all compatibles 10 bit. I’ve purchased the 15 inches especially because I’ve seen in the technical specifications of the AMD GPU that it is compatible with 10-bit.
