H.264/AVC is the latest block-oriented motion-compensation-based codec standard developed by the ITU-T Video Coding Experts Group (VCEG) together with the ISO/IEC Moving Picture Experts Group (MPEG), and it was the product of a partnership effort known as the Joint Video Team (JVT).

H.264/AVC DirectShow video decoder.

Overview

H.264/AVC Decoder is a DirectShow filter for decoding H.264/AVC video streams.

Why H.264?

H.264/MPEG-4 Part 10 or AVC (Advanced Video Coding) is the latest motion compensation-based video compression technology available today. At only half the bandwidth of MPEG-2, H.264 provides better video quality due to a deblocking filter that helps smooth the sharp edges between macroblocks. Because of this, H.264 is especially suited for HD video.

H.264 is used in:

  • HDTV broadcasting
  • Digital Cinema
  • CCTV (Closed Circuit TV) and Video Surveillance
  • Web players and YouTube-like video sharing sites
  • Blue-ray optical discs

Features

  • Supports Baseline profile (BP), Main profile (MP), Extended profile (XP) and High profile (HiP).
  • Supports 4:2:0 and 4:2:2 color spaces, 8 and 10 bits per color plane.
  • Multicore/Hyper Threading support.
  • MMX/SSE/SSE2/SSE3 ASM optimization.
  • CABAC/CAVLC.
  • I, P and B slices.
  • AVC-Intra support.
  • AVC1 file and byte stream formats support.
  • Field or frame pictures.
  • Color space conversions (YUY2, UYVY, YVYU, Y422, NV12, YV12, I420, ARGB32, RGB32, RGB24, RGB565, RGB555, v210, r210, AB10, AR10, BR16, RB16, AB16, AR16).

Specifications and description of user interfaces can be found in the .idl file in the \Idl folder of the filter installation directory.

Supported Standards

  • ITU-T H.264
  • ISO/IEC 14496-10 – MPEG-4 Part 10, Advanced Video Coding
