The HEVC standard defines thirteen levels. [1] [2] A level is a set of constraints for a bitstream. [1] [2] For levels below level 4 only the Main tier is allowed. [1] [2] A decoder that conforms to a given tier/level is required to be capable of decoding all bitstreams that are encoded for that tier/level and for all lower tiers/levels. [1] [2]
In a subjective video codec comparison released in August 2014 by the EPFL, the HM-15.0 HEVC encoder was compared with the VP9 1.2.0–5183 encoder and the JM-18.8 H.264/MPEG-4 AVC encoder. Four 4K resolutions sequences were encoded at five different bit rates with the encoders set to use an intra period of one second.
The quality the codec can achieve is heavily based on the compression format the codec uses. A codec is not a format, and there may be multiple codecs that implement the same compression specification – for example, MPEG-1 codecs typically do not achieve quality/size ratio comparable to codecs that implement the more modern H.264 specification.
x265 – An encoder based on the High Efficiency Video Coding (HEVC/H.265) standard. Xvid – MPEG-4 Part 2 codec, compatible with DivX; libvpx – VP8 and VP9 implementation; formerly a proprietary codec developed by On2 Technologies, released by Google under a BSD-like license in May 2010.
On August 13, 2014, Ittiam Systems announces availability of its third generation H.265/HEVC codec with 422 12-bit support. [ 94 ] On August 19, 2014, Nippon Telegraph and Telephone announced that support for the HEVC range extensions was added to their HEVC-1000 SDK software encoder which can encode video using the Main 4:2:2 12 profile.

The H.264 specification calls H.261, H.262, H.263, and H.264 video coding standards and does not contain the word codec. [2] The Alliance for Open Media clearly distinguishes between the AV1 video coding format and the accompanying codec they are developing, but calls the video coding format itself a video codec specification.
