Does anyone have any idea how to enable the VP9 acceleration of Chrome/YouTube on Polaris cards ?

I want access to VP9 4K60fps content, so no other browser is suitable for that.
Seems to work in Edge on my GTX 1060. Tested up to 8k VP9 w/ 10% CPU usage and no dropped frames. Chrome can't even do this, actually, at least not on my system. Same video pegs my CPU and drops frames like crazy.
