Raspberry Pi OS • HW accelerated 1080p video on 4k Desktop

$

Is there any way to get Bookworm to play a 1080p 30/24fps video (i can convert to any format needed that works) on a 4k tv? (3840x2160), using the desktop resolution on 4k as well?

I need to play video and images on this tv (it's for a local cinema) and as its small text and up close, i need the desktop resolution to be 4k, and as i need automation and controls/interaction, i need debian, and not android or other media centered distribution/OS.

The problems is, i was used with omxplayer and HD tvs, and now is long gone and unsupported, but i see that VLC has WH accelerated decoding (using cvlc), so i can play with almost no cpu utilization, smooth and reliably. but when the desktop is set to 4k, the player runs video on the upper corner, (25% of the screen, like video is decoding 1:1 pixels) and not fullscreen, even setting the fullscreen argument.

using the VLC interface and not the commandline, i tried basically all the combinations of decoding and output to get a fullscreen and smooth video, and none worked. i get "slideshow" or jerky video.

any tips appreciated! )
