High-Efficiency Video Coding (HEVC), also known as H.265, is a video compression standard, regarded by many as the successor to the AVC (H.264) standard. It was developed following the same concepts as H.264 and manages to provide substantially higher video quality than H.264 at the same bit rate. HEVC videos are slowly replacing AVC videos on the Internet. In comparison to AVC, HEVC offers from 25% to 50% better data compression at the same level of video quality, or substantially improved video quality at the same bit rate. It is one of the reasons why H.265 video is so popular among video fans.
