Part 1. Step into HEVC/H.265
HEVC/H.265, the successor to AVC/H.264, designed by the MPEG association is the next generation video codec for high resolution video industry. It supports up 8192×4320 resolution and cost only half of the potential storage compared with H.264 (its predecessor) in same video quality & resolution in display. Simply speaking, it’s better in quality and smaller in size. But it also come with shortcoming – the overdose to hardware resources.
Part 2. HEVC/H.265 Playback, Hardware Decoding & Encoding
HEVC project was announced publicly since 2014, and HEVC players is now mature developed in almost all hardware & platforms. For Windows, 5KPlayer, VLC, Kodi, Plex Media Player get good ranks . For macOS, 5KPlayer or VLC is your best bet. For iOS system, VLC is the choice. For Android users, MX player or Plex app may support HEVC playback.
Since then, after 6 years of development, the HEVC has become the mature and complete video codec solution. But it still has limitations and shortage in some domain. To decode H.265/HEVC and encode to the mainstream H.264, MP4 is still important to almost all users to resolve the playback issue in many cases.
For customers who are not willing to spend extra money for replacing their devices, to play 4K HEVC video could be a challenge for their computer/ portable devices. Due to the computational complexity of H.265(HEVC) algorithm and its encoding and decoding process, outdated hardware may not be able to playback the HEVC 4K video.
With hardware acceleration supported in the system, HEVC/H.265 decoding and encoding will be much faster. Currently 2 popular technologies with H.265/HEVC hardware decoding/encoding capabilities are Nvidia NVENC and Intel Quick Sync. This post introduces a popular video converter for Windows (10) and Mac which offers smoothest and fastest HEVC/H.265 decoding and encoding by supporting Intel QSV and Nvidia NVENC hardware acceleration.
