It was widely used for Blu-rays, streaming, and broadcasting, and it was very effective. However, the demands of 4K video and the need for even smaller file sizes led to the development of its successor: H.265, also known as HEVC (High Efficiency Video Coding).

To put it simply, a video codec is a computer algorithm that compresses and decompresses digital video. Raw, uncompressed video footage takes up a massive amount of data. For example, just five seconds of uncompressed Full HD video can take up nearly 2 GB of space. Codecs use complex mathematics to make these files smaller and easier to store, stream, or share.
