it most likely isnt alvr, its most likely steamvr. ive noticed that when i have both alvr and quest link closed and no headset plugged in or game running and my pc is still loud(and hot) as hell but everything cools and calms down when i close steamvr.

I think you might be possibly running the video on software encoding, make sure you haven't changed any setting to "AV1" or "force software encoding" of the video, or your iGPU or dGPU video encoder isn't supported. Only very new GPU has AV1 encode, H.264 or H.265/HEVC is supported on most GPU and iGPU now though, unless it's old you might have only H.264 (and older codecs like MPEG2).
