Abstract

This study aims to carry out an objective assessment by evaluating the encoding performance of the new standard compared to its predecessor H.264/AVC. In addition, to produce a comprehensive investigation, we compared several resolutions (1080p, 720p, and 480p) with a combination of CRF and encoder presets. To find out the performance of both techniques we used several test parameters such as encoding duration, compression ratio, bitrate, MSE, and PSNR. The results showed that H.264 was faster in terms of the time needed to carry out the encoding process. However the compression ratio and bitrate of H.265 was better with a difference of 38.5% and 52.7% respectively. Finally, if the user wants to prioritize better quality video output without having to sacrifice a lot of compression time and small file size, then our recommendation is to use H.265 and by HD resolution configuration (720p) with medium presets and 18 CRF value.
