#smeast Session: An Under the Hood Assessment of H.265 vs. H.264

The case for H.265, like most new video technologies, is compelling: better compression and faster/cheaper delivery over lower bitrates. However, the reality of real-world choices can quickly deflate any optimistic plans. At the Streaming Media East show next week in NYC, we’ve got encoding expert Robert Reinhardt comparing H.265 to H.264. Learn if and how H.265 compression and deployment options can be utilized in typical online streaming workflows, and more importantly, if your target audiences can benefit. Examples of x264 and x265 output will be compared for bitrate, compression time, and file size.
