H.264
H.264, also known as MPEG-4 Part 10, Advanced Video Coding, is a compression standard. Without
compressing image quality, it increases compression ratio and reduces the size of video file than
MJPEG or MPEG-4 Part 2.
H.265
H.265, also known as High Efficiency Video Coding (HEVC) and MPEG-H Part 2, is a compression
standard. In comparison to H.264, it offers better video compression at the same resolution, frame
rate and image quality.
MJPEG
Motion JPEG (M-JPEG or MJPEG) is a video compression format in which intraframe coding
technology is used. Images in a MJPEG format is compressed as individual JPEG images.
Profile
This function means that under the same bitrate, the more complex the profile is, the higher the
quality of the image is, and the requirement for network bandwidth is also higher.
I-Frame Interval
I-frame interval defines the number of frames between 2 I-frames.
In H.264 and H.265, an I-frame, or intra frame, is a self-contained frame that can be independently
decoded without any reference to other images. An I-frame consumes more bits than other
frames. Thus, video with more I-frames, in other words, smaller I-frame interval, generates more
steady and reliable data bits while requiring more storage space.
SVC
Scalable Video Coding (SVC) is the name for the Annex G extension of the H.264 or H.265 video
compression standard.
The objective of the SVC standardization has been to enable the encoding of a high-quality video
bitstream that contains one or more subset bitstreams that can themselves be decoded with a
complexity and reconstruction quality similar to that achieved using the existing H.264 or H.265
design with the same quantity of data as in the subset bitstream. The subset bitstream is derived
by dropping packets from the larger bitstream.
