    Codec Codes for playback - H265 files


    I am trying to watch playback from CCTV recorded on a USB. Media Player does not support the file to open the h265 file due to codec code? How can I open these files?

    I have brought and downloaded a file from the Microsoft store HEVC Video Extensions and the files on the USB still do not open?


    Can anyone help??


    Thanks

    :)

    H265 stopped working

    Hi,

    I have an HP envy with a 940MX GPU. It can playback H265 files without a problem before, but after a recent update, H265 files won't play anymore. How can I fix this? I have tried uninstalling the recent updates with no luck.

    Regards,

    Ralph

    Hi Ralph,

    Support for video codecs like the High Efficiency Video Coding (HEVC or H.265) is dependent on the application that you're using. To better understand your concern, we'd like to know the following:

    • The error message that you're getting when attempting to play the specified videos.
    • The application that you're using to playback videos.
    • The version and build of Windows 10 that you're using on your device. To check this, you can perform the steps posted on this

      link
      .

    In the meantime, we'd recommend downloading the
    HEVC Video Extension
    application in Microsoft Store to facilitate the playback of such files on your device. Installing this will enable compatible devices to support it.

    Handbrake users -- best settings to convert H264 to H265

    Hi there

    Converting 1080p MKV files encoded in H264 to H265

    What's the best setting to use keeping original quality as much as possible -- a 2hr film currently with my H264 encode is around 4GB for MKV file.

    The source is full HD 1080p captured from SKY Q minibox. Quality on playback is excellent but I want to store a lot of these on an external HDD so want to compress the size down a bit.

    (note you need to use an HDMI splitter to get stuff off the SKY Q minibox otherwise the capture device won't see anything (DRM).

    The capture device doesn't unfortunately capture in H265 which is why I need the conversion step.

    I would like to get about 50% of that size with H265 - but not sure of the settings in Handbrake I should use.

    Any video editors here --help please !!!!!

    I'm not bothered if the final container is MKV or MP4 so long as it's encoded H265 and quality is very similar (preferably identical) to original file.

    Cheers
    jimbo
