Do note that this sync method can greatly reduce performance, and can turn smooth 60 fps into crawling 30 fps if there was not enough headroom in the performance.
If you use [[KMS mode]], using `video_hard_sync` won't help as it already does something like this.
## Threaded video fallback
If your video driver has very bad performance, it is possible to run it on a thread to avoid almost all video driver overhead. Set `video_threaded = true` in config. Butter smooth VSync behavior in this case is impossible however, and latency might increase slighly. Use only if you cannot obtain full speed otherwise.
