Introduction of Powerful H.265 Decoders

The newest H.265 represents powerful compression technology which is capable of delivering a superior video experience at a very low bit rate. Honestly, H.265 is an advanced video format in variety ways comparing with H.264.

Basically, it will take years for a new codec to become popular. As far as we are concerned, there are few applications or devices able to support H.265. Therefore, if you would like to make your Windows PC or Mac fully support with H.265 files, or want to do something that is universal, there is no question that you need an H.265 video decoder which can ensure your computers recognize H.265 flawlessly.

1.Strongene HEVC/H.265 Decoder

It is a powerful H.265 video decoder. The decoding speed is more than 200fps for videos with 1920x1080 resolution, 100fps for videos with 2560x1600 resolution, and the real-time decoding of videos with resolution up to 4kx2k is well supported. And users no longer need to worry about the smoothness of playing HEVC videos.

Advantages

1. Low CPU occupancy
2. Extreme decoding speed
3. Easy integration

Disadvantage

It works well with the operating systems of Windows, Linux and Android over Intel x86 platforms, as well as iOS, Android and Linux over ARM platforms. That said, it is a great H.265 decoder for Windows, but pitifully, if you need an H.265 decoder for Mac, you'll have to look for elsewhere.

2.FFmpeg

Most people are familiar with the FFmpeg - a totally free media program to record, convert and stream audio and videos. Besides, it is able to grab and encode in real time from a TV card. Recently, FFmpeg developers added a VP9 media decoder to the open-source project and now they have added a free implementation of the HEVC/H.265 codec decoder. However, all not is perfect. Since the command is not so user-friendly for regular users. There are graphic user interface (GUI) implements for FFMPEG, like WinFF and AVANTI for Windows. However, as far as we are concerned, there is not an exact GUI for FFmpeg on Mac.
