x264 and x265 (HEVC) are video codecs, differing in their compression efficiency. x264, or H.264/AVC, is an established codec known for good video quality at reasonable bitrates, making it suitable for various applications like online streaming. In contrast, x265 (HEVC) is a newer codec offering significantly improved compression efficiency. It achieves comparable video quality at smaller file sizes or higher quality at equivalent sizes, making it ideal for ultra-high-definition content. However, this efficiency comes with increased decoding complexity, potentially requiring more computational power. The choice between x264 and x265 depends on factors such as desired quality, bandwidth, and playback device capabilities.
