- Description
 - The High Efficiency Video Coding (HEVC) file, commonly known by its file extension .hevc, represents a video compression format designed to substantially improve coding efficiency compared to its predecessor, H.264/AVC. Aimed at enabling higher resolution video content such as 4K and 8K, HEVC is adept at maintaining high-quality video at roughly half the bitrate, significantly reducing file sizes without compromising on visual fidelity. This efficiency makes HEVC particularly valuable in streaming media applications.
 - Generic Windows or OS/2 bitmap graphic; similar to a .BMP file, but has different header information; supports 1, 4, 8, and 24 bits per pixel if the image is uncompressed and 4 and 8 bits per pixel if the image uses RLE compression; a 24-bit DIB image contains 8 bits, or 1 byte for each RGB color.
