H.264/MPEG-4 Part 10 or AVC (Advanced Video Coding) is a standard for video compression. The intent of the H.264/AVC project was to create a standard capable of providing good video quality at substantially lower bit rates than previous standards (e.g. half or less the bit rate of MPEG-2, H.263, or MPEG-4 Part 2), without increasing the complexity of design so much that it would be impractical or excessively expensive to implement.
High Efficiency Video Coding (HEVC) or also called H.265 is a new video codec that compresses video files to 50% with the most proficient encoding format today, MPEG-4, or also known as the H.264. That will be 1/4 the size of a file compressed with MPEG 2 codec which many of cable television companies are still using. More significantly, H.265 is being used to compress video files that have 4K resolution — and conceivably even 8K resolution files sooner or later — therefore it could be resourcefully delivered.
A lot of people want to encode H.264 MP4 to H.265 MP4 since it's the best format for video experience. In order to convert H.264 MP4 to H.265 MP4, you will need to have a reliable video converter to do the job. Overall, Pavtube Video Converter for Mac is considered to be the best choice for you.
