How would you if your hardware can or cannot decode h.265? Would it simply not play or might play but stutter, or play in some compromised way?

I have an iPad Mini 2 from 2013. It can play H265 with software decoding, and it doesn't stutter. The only drawback is that the machine gets hot.

It would be slow and your laptop would sound like it’s taking off
