I mean, it kinda sorta does? Watching trailers for games is agonizing through the Steam client, even using a pretty beefy PC that can play the games themselves just fine. When I go to the Steam website instead, the trailers play just fine.

Steam seems to deprioritize it's foot stamp when it's not in focus which is why you might find the videos to get choppy if you happen to also be multi-tasking. If you focus the client they work just fine (at least this is my experience.)
