It already runs at an elevated priority. However, the renderer does not
operate in a vacuum. It doesn't matter how high the renderer's priority is
if the file source cannot feed frames, the compressor cannot decompress
them, or the color space converter cannot process them.

As a general rule, it is counterproductive to mess with the individual
thread priorities. A video graph is a relatively balanced process.
