For years, H.264 has been the go-to video compression standard. No matter you download a film from the popular torrent site or import a video to some popular NLE software programs, the video is often encoded with H.264 codec. But nowadays, the H.265 format, often called HEVC (high efficiency video coding), is being adopted as the new standard, particularly at the commercial level, and video creators/editors are slowly but surely being required to use it — especially for a little thing called 4K video. H.265/HEVC offers 50-75% more compression efficiency compared to H.264 video, while retaining the same visual quality. An H.265/HEVC Converter can help you convert H.264 video to H.265/HEVC to make your video occupy half the space of its H.264 equivalent with no noticeable change in quality.

There are many H.265/HEVC Decoder and Encoder for Windows. But it is harder to get a perfect HEVC Converter for Mac. Handbrake can encode video to H.265 on Mac in its the latest update, however, it is very time-consuming cause that HEVC encoding is CPU-taking but HandBrake doesn’t support NVIDIA NVENC, and it can’t support QSV very well. Besides Handbrake, many free H.265 encoders in the market can't transcode H.264 (some MPEG-2) video to H.265/HEVC video with fast speed and satisfying picture and sound quality.
