Graphics, sound and multimedia • How many streams can Raspberry Pi 5 handle?

Hello,

I'm excited about the new PI 5 release. I couldn't find enough details in the spec listed on the official site regarding number of decoded video streams. I'm wondering:
1. How many simultaneous RTSP H265 1920x1080@30FPS video streams can be handled on both HDMI outputs? Hardware decoded.
2. How many simultaneous RTSP H265 1920x1080@30FPS video streams can be handled on both HDMI outputs? Software decoded.
3. How many simultaneous RTSP H264 1920x1080@30FPS video streams can be handled on both HDMI outputs? Hardware decoded.
4. How many simultaneous RTSP H264 1920x1080@30FPS video streams can be handled on both HDMI outputs? Software decoded.
5. What sort of CPU usage could one expect for software decoding per video stream? My input test stream would be RTSP video cameras.

Anyone with access to PI 5 is able to quickly test?

Thanks a bunch.
/P
