H.264 Converter and H.264 Decoder
1. What is H.264?
H.264 is known as MPEG-4 AVC, The standard is expected to offer
up to twice the compression of the current MPEG-4 ASP (Advanced
Simple Profile), in addition to improvements in perceptual quality.
The H.264 standard can provide DVD-quality video at under 1 Mbps,
and is considered promising for full-motion video over wireless,
satellite, and ADSL Internet connections.
2. what is H.264/AVC? AVC is
abbreviated form of Advanced Video Coding. Actually it is the same
thing with H.264. we can also call it H.264/AVC, H.264/MPEG-4 AVC,
or MPEG-4 Part 10.
3. I want to use it! But where can I download
this H.264 codec from? There are many H.264 Codecs you
can choose to create H.264 files. Here I can tell you some good
H.264 Codecs.
Nero Recode 2. Their H.264 encoder in this latest version is called NeroDigital AVC, can be also used in other video-concerned programmes.
Apple Quicktime. Through Quicktime 7 Pro, you can process video files not only based on Mac OS X, but also based on Windows.
X264. An open source way, you have to key in command manually. But it has one advantage, it is being used extensively in many free progammes like SUPER, Fairuse Wizard, and various other projects.
Certainly there are many others, like MainConcept H.264 encoder, Sorenson and VSS, but compared with H.264 Codecs listed above, they are either too expensive or difficult to operate.
4. which H.264 Codecs do you suggest I
use to create H.264 files? It depends, but I strongly
recommend x264. It is for free, it has the same functions with other
tools costs hundreds of dollars. Furthermore, it surpasses them
in some special areas.You can never find a choice better than it.
But if you want to do a simple conversion, you can use SUPER, a
GUI for ffmpeg and mencoder that can use x264 to create an H.264
encoded file. There are many other free ways you can take, like
MeGUI, Gordian Knot. While Nero Recode is the best one in the charged
tools. We don't recommend Quicktime Pro for it has some problems
in its processing speed.
5. How can I playback H.264 videos?
The latest version of ffdshow supports H.264 playback. You can get it from here. Remember, ffdshow is a DirectShow filter so after you install it you'll be able to play H.264 in most video players you have installed before, including Windows Media Player.
Video LAN can be another choice for you, it can play H264 even without any codec or Direct Show Filter. And you can download it from here.
I don't suggest Nero Showtime or Apple Quicktime, for they have some limitations in playback all video formats.
6. The playback is slow with pauses, why
does this happen? H.264 has a high-standard request for
CPU and RAM, It can work well only based on CPU more than 1GHz and
256 RAM.
7. My standalone MPEG4 player can play
DivX/XviD. Can it play H264 too? No, the standalone MPEG4
players that are now in the market do not support H.264 videos.
Hardware players will be made in the future but right now none is
available.
8. What about support of H.264 in mobile
devices? Both the new Video iPod and Sony PSP can support
H.264, probably Pocket PCs also can with the use of the right software,
but I do not know any softwares could be used in Pocket PC.
9, What extension does H.264 have ? Is
it an AVI file or does it have its own extension like DivX?
H.264 use many formats as its extension: AVI, MP4, Nero Recode and
Quicktime use this format. It is better than AVI because it can
also store AAC audio. MKV Matroska container can support many video
and audio formats. Here you can get more info. H.264, it has't been
commonly used by people. Maybe in the future.
