While performance is indeed affected (tested with GStreamer), 4K playback still works as long as you don't operate in lock step and keep at least 1 frame ahead of time in the decode queue. After discussion with ChromeOS members, it would seem that their implementation indeed used to synchronously decode each frames, so this hack was simply compensating for their code being less efficient. In my opinion, this hack should not have been included upstream.
