- 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.
- A Generic Picture File is a type of file format used to store an image or graphic representation. It can be used to store digital photos, clip art, line art, and other types of graphics. Common file extensions for this type of file include .jpg, .gif, .bmp, and .png.
