- Description
- CRI USM Video is a proprietary video container format developed by CRI Middleware for use in video games. It stores compressed audio and video streams, often using CRI's own codecs, and is commonly used for cutscenes and in-game video playback. It is prevalent in many console and PC games developed in Japan.
- 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.
