Description
An image sequence stored in a HEIF container with the frames coded as AVC (H.264) instead of HEVC, under the 'avcs' brand of the AVC Image File Format. Converting extracts the first frame.
It is an image compression codec file with the same quality as .jpeg, but that is ten smaller. It supports HDR (High Dynamic Range). SDR (Standard Dynamic Range), and WCG (Wide Color Gamut) images. Also, it contains both the image sequences and image items. The only pitfall is that a few applications support it.
