Everything about Advanced Video Coding
Widely used standard for video compression
Advanced Video Coding (AVC), also referred to as H.264 or MPEG-4 Part 10, is a video compression standard based on block-oriented, motion-compensated coding. It is by far the most commonly used format for the recording, compression, and distribution of video content, used by 79% of video industry developers as of December 2024. It supports a maximum resolution of 8K UHD. Wikipedia →
