H.264 Video Format

What is H.264 video format? H.264 is an industry standard for video compression, the process of converting digital video into an H.264 video format that takes up less capacity when it is stored or transmitted. Video compression (or video coding) is an essential technology for applications such as digital television, DVD-Video, mobile TV, videoconferencing and internet video streaming. Standardising video compression makes it possible for products from different manufacturers (e.g. encoders, decoders and storage media) to inter-operate. An encoder converts video into a compressed format and a decoder converts compressed video back into an uncompressed format.

An H.264 video encoder carries out prediction, transform and encoding processes to produce a compressed H.264 bitstream.
An H.264 video decoder carries out the complementary processes of decoding, inverse transform and reconstruction to produce a decoded video sequence.

As well as its improved compression performance, H.264 video format offers greater flexibility in terms of compression options and transmission support. An H.264 encoder can select from a wide variety of compression tools, making it suitable for applications ranging from low-bitrate, low-delay mobile transmission through high definition consumer TV to professional television production. The standard provides integrated support for transmission or storage, including a packetised compressed format and features that help to minimise the effect of transmission errors. H.264 video file formats are being adopted for an increasingly wide range of applications, including:

High Definition DVDs (HD-DVD and Blu-Ray formats)
High Definition TV broadcasting in Europe
Apple products including iTunes video downloads, iPod video and MacOS
NATO and US DoD video applications
Mobile TV broadcasting
Internet video
Videoconferencing
