H.264 versus HEVC versus VP9

October 1, 2024 12:00 PM

Innovation was demanded by the standards bodies to further improve on compression efficiency of the existing compression standards by as much as 50% to facilitate the introduction of 4K / Ultra HD as well increase the reach of Over The Top (OTT) services. All this activity surrounding compression formats begs the questions, what is the technology behind these standards, what are their target markets, how are they related and lastly are they gaining market traction?

Please join SMPTE and Ian Trow, Senior Director Emerging Technology and Strategy at Harmonic, for this very timely webcast!
