Question Is there a codec that compresses more than H265?

[kacper6768]

Is there a codec that compresses more than H265? Are H265 and H265+ the same codec or different? I have a collection of videos shot with a camera in H264 format. Is it worth converting them to H265 format?
Are the original videos on YouTube or Rumble and other sites in H264 format. Is it possible to directly download movies in H265 format from these sites or do they have to be downloaded in H264 and I need to set the automatic conversion to H265 format in the downloader? Why the most popular format is H264 instead of H265 to waste disk space or servers of YouTube, Rumble and others unnecessarily?
On the udud of new TV decoders for receiving TV from the antenna, it says H265, does it mean that the TV also has a broadcast codec?

Yeah, even Youtube is starting to adopt AV1
https://www.tomshardware.com/news/av1-live-streaming-is-finally-coming-to-youtube

The reason that so much is still on 264 is because it needs far less resources for playback and all devices support it, so if the platforms wouldn't support it they would lose a lot of their viewership that just wouldn't be able to play the videos anymore.

Is there a codec that compresses more than H265? Are H265 and H265+ the same codec or different?

They're different codecs. However looking at information on H.265+ leads me to believe it's only useful in surveillance use cases because everyone seems to point to this use case.

I have a collection of videos shot with a camera in H264 format. Is it worth converting them to H265 format?

If your aim is lowering how much space they use, then I don't think it's worth it. Storage space is cheap.

Are the original videos on YouTube or Rumble and other sites in H264 format. Is it possible to directly download movies in H265 format from these sites or do they have to be downloaded in H264 and I need to set the automatic conversion to H265 format in the downloader?

YouTube uses VP9, which is an H.264 competitor. Not sure what Rumble uses. But otherwise unless they offer it in H.265 to begin with, you won't be able to download them as H.265.

Why the most popular format is H264 instead of H265 to waste disk space or servers of YouTube, Rumble and others unnecessarily?

Because storage space is cheap and H.264 is a universal format at this point, so almost anything that can play videos these days will support H.264. H.265 should be getting there though. Also as mentioned, Google is switching to AV1 anyway for YouTube because AV1 (and VP9) is an open, royalty free video codec.

On the udud of new TV decoders for receiving TV from the antenna, it says H265, does it mean that the TV also has a broadcast codec?

Yes, because TV broadcasting switched to digital video in the mid 2000s. They use the same codecs as anyone else, it's just the transmission method is different.

It takes a very long time to convert video to H265 on the CPU itself. Are there any free online converters to send movies to some data cloud and give a link to the online converter to this cloud so that the converter works on a similar principle to Gerorce Now so that some server provides its computing power for free conversion of movies?

GPU encoding doesn't produce the best quality for a given bitrate. Also in your case, your GPU doesn't support H.265 encoding.

You're not going to find anyone who's going to do this for free unless they're heavily restrictive about the output (like 480p, 10 minutes, garbo bitrate, etc).

Which program can convert video to H265+ format when only H265 is available?

 

[rgd1101]

the only thing I found for that is

H.265 Plus

With H.265+, video quality nearly matches that of H.265/HEVC but reduces the transmission bandwidth and storage capacity required, due to three key technologies.

What is your goal? If your goal is to save as much space as possible, fine, but what's your situation? Do you only have something like a 1TB drive an you're trying to stuff everything you ever want plus more into it?

Unless hard drives are more expensive than a moped where you live, just get another hard drive.

What is the difference between 1-pass encoding and 2-pass encoding and which encoding is better to choose?
Should I set Peak Framerate or constant framerate?
Check the Deinterlance option?
Should you check the Turbo first pass option?
Are free video converters worse than paid ones? Does the paid program convert to better quality or does it matter and pay for the number of options?

difference between 1-pass encoding and 2-pass encoding

2-pass has better image quality

Which program can convert video to variable bitrate? I am using Any Video Converter Any Video Converter Ultimate 7.1.7. Does this program support variable bitare video or only constant? Is it possible to convert to the H265 codec without losing image quality or do I have to look for a lossless codec? Which codecs are lossless?
From which models of graphics cards support GPU conversion to the H265 codec and from which model to the H266 codec?
Is video playback also supported by graphic cards or only by converting?
When there is an image in BMP format and it is changed to JPG format, it is much smaller in size but then there are some small dots that deteriorate the quality of the image but when it is changed to PNG format, it is of identical quality and much smaller in size, why is the jpg format the most common used for photos instead of png same mp3 format is lossy. Instead of using lossless audio formats that also take up little disk space, lossy mp3 is released. What is the lossless video codec like PNG, the movie equivalent of PNG?
What is the lossless audio format?
In video converters there is an option to choose the audio format aac, ac3, mp3, which one should I choose?
How much bitrate for audio is 128 or more or less?
44100 or 48000?
When someone records some sound in mono with one microphone and the movie has mono sound, is it pointless to set stereo in the converter and only select mono?
Can mono audio be split into stereo?

That's a lot of questions.
Have you tried googling any of that?
Did you not find any relevant answers?

are you doing this for a home project?

2-pass has better image quality

Are you sure on this? If I remember it correctly, a 2-pass encoding is used when the user want to output a file that has a certain file size, and the compression rate is adjusted based on the file size (max) requested by user.
At least, that what GUI in Avidemux indicates.

 

[hotaru.hino]

Most hits on 2-pass encoding describe it as the following:

• The first pass analyzes the video data
• The second pass uses the information from the first pass to determine the best way to compress the video

So it makes the output more efficient in terms of quality vs bitrate.

 

[Grobe]

So it makes the output more efficient in terms of quality vs bitrate.

Ah, yes - but should mention "average bitrate" as it won't be evenly distributed over the lapse of the video.

That said, I prefer using constant quality rate when archiving video records despite not knowing the resulting file size when the encoding are complete.

Second point here - As a direct interpretation of OP's question "Is there a codec that compresses more than H265?". This is a hard question because it's somewhat unclear what the end goal is:

• Any decent encoders for H265 alow the user to adjust quaity vs. file size. Why not simply adjust quality factor (higher means lower quality and smaller files) or bitrate in existing format?
• As previously mention - the question doesn't mention any other relevant factors such as (is this important for OP?):
  • How well are that new fancy format supported by various video players, tv's and similar units in todays market.
  • Better quality, but at what cost? Is it a good solution if there comes around a new format that offers say 5% size reduction at similar amount of graphical information (if it exist some standard for actually measuring this, please let me know) - but takes four times to complete the encoding and thus four times more energy. Already in todays encoding software (take Avidemux/Handbrake for example) - here is possible to set a a preset of the encoding, where "ultrafast" is quick but also produce less good quality for same bit rate, and there is an "ultra slow" setting that take very long time to encode, but also gives the best result. So maybe the solution for OP is not a new video format after all ?

 

[hotaru.hino]

I interpret OP's requirements as trying to find something that retains more or less the same quality but consumes a lot less storage space.

My argument is unless OP lives in a place where the gigabytes per dollar figure (or equivalent) is approaching mid 2000s pricing, to just buy more storage space if they're running out. There's no point in spending the time and energy converting what I presume are hundreds of hours of video just to maximize storage space usage.

I don't have enough disk space and I don't have the money to buy another disk and I want to compress the videos as much as possible without any loss of quality or at least as little loss of quality as possible.

When recording a movie with the Roadrunner 505 Prestigio camera, there are 3 resolutions to choose from 1920x1080, 1440x1080, 1280x720, is it better to choose the highest one or the lower one 1440x1080 or the lowest 1280x720?
The maximum FPS at normal or medium resolution is 30 but at the highest resolution of 1920x1080 it is 25.
What is more important higher resolution or higher fps?
Which is better to choose the quality in the settings of this camera now I'm only writing about the settings in the camera options or low quality or medium quality or the highest quality and this setting is separate independent of the choice of resolution?

Is it worth buying a 4K or 8K monitor these days? I don't need so many pixels for games and I use a 10-year-old graphics card anyway, but if I used such a monitor to edit photos in Abode Photoshop or Adobe Premiere to edit movies, would the program's interface be readable in such a resolution?

Roadrunner 505 Prestigio camera is a dash cam? what kind of movie are you saving?

More compression won't "save" enough drive space to really matter.

Again...is this a dashcam? (it appears to be)
How much of that are you saving?

Please give us a LOT more detail on this.

I don't have a car, I just found such a camera in a dumpster, I'm poor, I couldn't afford a new one. I would like to use the camera to record nature to watch in the winter and a new highway is building where I live,I make films to send them to my cousins who lives abroad because they want to know what is happening in my village out of curiosity.

Its an old, crappy dashcam you found in the dumpster.

Be glad that it works at all.
