- 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 WMA file is an audio file saved in the Advanced Systems Format (ASF) proprietary format developed by Microsoft. It contains Windows Media Audio and metadata objects such as the title, artist, album, and genre of the track. WMA files are similar to .MP3 files and primarily used for streaming music from the web.
