Lucas, After reviewing the comments from Benjamin, I re-ran the VP9 tests with the G2 running at 300MHz,and the number of passing VP9 tests increased to 148 from 144 with an increase of time to 250.502 secs from 162.665 secs. While the datasheet reads that the G2 can run faster, the i.MX 8M Dual/8M QuadLite/8M Quad Applications Processors Reference Manual, Rev. 3.1, 06/2021, table 5-1 shows the VPU_G2_CLK_ROOT has a max clock of 300MHz. I might be inclined to agree with Benjamin on the 300MHz and let people who want to push their hardware overwrite the default clocks since it increases functionality.
