H.264

The new standard for digital video quality and performance

H.264 is the new standard for high definition (HD) digital video, and for good reason. A codec based on the H.264 standard compresses a digital video file so that it only uses half the space of MPEG-2 (the DVD standard), to deliver the same quality video. This means you can enjoy stunning HD video the way it was meant to be seen without sacrificing speed or performance.

That’s why we based the latest generation of DivX® 7 software on the H.264 standard — it uses less data and offers smoother playback and faster encoding. It’s simply the best choice to deliver HD video on your computer today. And in the near future, you’ll be able to have the same cinematic video experience on all your devices — from the TV to your mobile phone.
