The HEVC standard defines thirteen levels. [1] [2] A level is a set of constraints for a bitstream. [1] [2] For levels below level 4 only the Main tier is allowed. [1] [2] A decoder that conforms to a given tier/level is required to be capable of decoding all bitstreams that are encoded for that tier/level and for all lower tiers/levels. [1] [2]
On January 22, 2015, Nvidia released their GeForce GTX 960 mainstream video card which includes a fixed function HEVC Main/Main10 hardware decoder. [109] On March 9, 2015, Nvidia released VDPAU version 1.0 which supports HEVC decoding for the Main, Main 4:4:4, Main Still Picture, Main 10, and Main 12 profiles. [110]
High Efficiency Video Coding (HEVC), also known as H.265 and MPEG-H Part 2, is a video compression standard designed as part of the MPEG-H project as a successor to the widely used Advanced Video Coding (AVC, H.264, or MPEG-4 Part 10).
The quality the codec can achieve is heavily based on the compression format the codec uses. A codec is not a format, and there may be multiple codecs that implement the same compression specification – for example, MPEG-1 codecs typically do not achieve quality/size ratio comparable to codecs that implement the more modern H.264 specification.
Although sometimes compared to DivX products, Xvid is neither a container format nor a video format, it is a software library that encodes video using specific coding profiles of the common MPEG-4 ASP video format. Those types of restrictions are intended to simplify the construction of multimedia recorders and players.
x265 is an encoder for creating digital video streams in the High Efficiency Video Coding (HEVC/H.265) video compression format developed by the Joint Collaborative Team on Video Coding (JCT-VC). [ 4 ] [ 5 ] [ 6 ] It is available as a command-line app or a software library , under the terms of GNU General Public License (GPL) version 2 or later ...
If the content conforms to certain HEVC profiles, more specific brands can be used: HEIX for Main 10 of HEVC, HEIM for (Multiview) Main profile, and HEIS for (Scalable) Main (10) profile of L-HEVC. A HEIC photo takes up about half the space of an equivalent quality JPEG file. [15]
