I'm excited for the next generation of video to replace h.264. It has now been branded
High Efficiency Video Coding HEVC for short. Preliminary tests show an improvement over h.264 by as much as 44% depending on the usage scenario. Quote:
I noticed doing a search that some SoC are already starting to integrate HEVC support into their design so that they will be ready. We also should start looking for the same because HEVC is going to be ratified early 2013 and likely there will be enough new hardware out to start testing the format right away. People with bandwidth caps or slow connections need a way of accessing downloadable content in the most efficient package as well. Any streaming service that can switch to HEVC will reap huge savings as well. Plus HEVC supports up to 8K video. omgwtfbbq |

Big media streamers like Netflix and Apple will be looking to leverage it quickly but it'll take a while for the smaller establishments to hope on board unless data caps for broadband lines begin to be enforced.

Awesome. Wasn't expecting such tremendous improvements so soon (though, to be fair, work on H.264 had started in 1998).

was in place that really compressed things well and these preliminary reports bode well. I don't have a bad bandwidth cap from Comcast. I believe it's a pretty generous 250GB for a month and they've never complained but that may not last forever. I also think video content is what's blowing up the iBook Textbooks as well. HTML content is small, 3D isn't that large in small animations. It must be the video content that gets these Textbooks to balloon up to 2 and 3 GB. omgwtfbbq |
