Future-Proofing Your Video: Codecs Explained
With MediaEngine's universal video containers and transcoding capabilities, you have total control over how your files are delivered. But when should you use AV1, and when is HEVC (H.265) the better choice?
| Codec Profile | Best Use Case | MediaEngine Support |
|---|---|---|
| HEVC (H.265) | Massive storage saving, perfect for archiving high-res 4K footage. | AVC to HEVC & HEVC to AVC. |
| AV1 | Ultra-efficient web delivery. The open-source standard of the future. | AVC to AV1 & AV1 to AVC. |
Picking the Perfect Container
Once your codec is chosen, wrap it perfectly:
- WEBM: Package spatial data directly for HTML5 playback.
- MKV: Pack rich streams, global audio selections, and subtitles into an open-ended layout.
- GIF: Transform active framerates cleanly into compressed loops.
