Because on the Pinebook (not pro) that was a giant pain...
Manjaro KDE on the Pinebook Pro does include hardware video playback I haven't tested other OS images though. No need, since Manjaro works so well!

Yeah, Pinebook Pro has a different SOC, the RK3399 (same as the RockPro64 SBC). The Pinebook has a Allwinner A64, (same as the PineA64 SBC) which is a *lot* slower.
