While not generally recommended, certain legacy environments specifically those with older hardware or outdated Linux distributions may require the deactivation of the standard seccomp profile to get containerized desktop software to run. This can be achieved by utilizing the `--security-opt seccomp=unconfined` parameter. It is critical to use this option only when absolutely necessary as it disables a key security layer of Docker, elevating the potential for container escape vulnerabilities.

To view this withut crashing on most client hardware, users on Chromium based browsers (including Android) will need to navigate to `chrome://flags/#disable-accelerated-video-decode` and set it to **Disabled**. Apple clients using Bionic processors can decode these frames natively with no additional settings.

**Note on Hardware Acceleration:** Currently, only Nvidia GPUs support encoding this color profile in **Zero Copy** mode. If FullColor 4:4:4 is enabled on Intel or AMD GPUs, the system will fall back to CPU encoding. This forces the CPU to read the pixels back from the GPU, which will cause a significant decrease in performance.
