lower <a href="/wiki/Bit_rate" title="Bit rate">bit rates</a> than previous standards (i.e., half or less the bit rate of <a href="/wiki/H.262/MPEG-2_Part_2" title="H.262/MPEG-2 Part 2">MPEG-2</a>, <a href="/wiki/H.263" title="H.263">H.263</a>, or <a href="/wiki/MPEG-4_Part_2" title="MPEG-4 Part 2">MPEG-4 Part 2</a>), without increasing the complexity of design so much that it would be impractical or excessively expensive to implement. This was achieved with features such as a reduced-complexity integer <a href="/wiki/Discrete_cosine_transform" title="Discrete cosine transform">discrete cosine transform</a> (integer DCT),<sup id="cite_ref-apple_7-0" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-apple-7"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>7<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> variable block-size segmentation, and multi-picture <a href="/wiki/Inter_frame" title="Inter frame">inter-picture prediction</a>. An additional goal was to provide enough flexibility to allow the standard to be applied to a wide variety of applications on a wide variety of networks and systems, including low and high bit rates, low and high resolution video, <a href="/wiki/Broadcasting" title="Broadcasting">broadcast</a>, <a href="/wiki/DVD" title="DVD">DVD</a> storage, <a href="/wiki/Real-time_Transport_Protocol" title="Real-time Transport Protocol">RTP</a>/<a href="/wiki/Internet_Protocol" title="Internet Protocol">IP</a> packet networks, and <a href="/wiki/ITU-T" title="ITU-T">ITU-T</a> multimedia <a href="/wiki/Telephony" title="Telephony">telephony</a> systems. The H.264 standard can be viewed as a "family of standards" composed of a number of different profiles, although its "High profile" is by far the most commonly used format. A specific decoder decodes at least one, but not necessarily all profiles. The standard describes the format of the encoded data and how the data is decoded, but it does not specify algorithms for encoding video –  that is left open as a matter for encoder designers to select for themselves, and a wide variety of encoding schemes have been developed. H.264 is typically used for <a href="/wiki/Lossy_compression" title="Lossy compression">lossy compression</a>, although it is also possible to create truly <a href="/wiki/Lossless_compression" title="Lossless compression">lossless-coded</a> regions within lossy-coded pictures or to support rare use cases for which the entire encoding is lossless. </p><p>H.264 was standardized by the <a href="/wiki/ITU-T" title="ITU-T">ITU-T</a> <a href="/wiki/Video_Coding_Experts_Group" title="Video Coding Experts Group">Video Coding Experts Group</a> (VCEG) of <a href="/wiki/ITU-T_Study_Group_16" title="ITU-T Study Group 16">Study Group 16</a> together with the <a href="/wiki/ISO/IEC_JTC_1" title="ISO/IEC JTC 1">ISO/IEC JTC 1</a> <a href="/wiki/Moving_Picture_Experts_Group" title="Moving Picture Experts Group">Moving Picture Experts Group</a> (MPEG). The project partnership effort is known as the Joint Video Team (JVT). The ITU-T H.264 standard and the ISO/IEC <a href="/wiki/MPEG-4" title="MPEG-4">MPEG-4</a> AVC standard (formally, ISO/IEC 14496-10 – MPEG-4 Part 10, Advanced Video Coding) are jointly maintained so that they have identical technical content. The final drafting work on the first version of the standard was completed in May 2003, and various extensions of its capabilities have been added in subsequent editions. <a href="/wiki/High_Efficiency_Video_Coding" title="High Efficiency Video Coding">High Efficiency Video Coding</a> (HEVC), a.k.a. H.265 and MPEG-H Part 2 is a successor to H.264/MPEG-4 AVC developed by the same organizations, while earlier standards are still in common use. </p><p>H.264 is perhaps best known as being the most commonly used video encoding format on <a href="/wiki/Blu-ray_Disc" class="mw-redirect" title="Blu-ray Disc">Blu-ray Discs</a>.

The standard was developed jointly in a partnership of VCEG and MPEG, after earlier development work in the ITU-T as a VCEG project called H.26L.

Occasionally, it is also referred to as "the JVT codec", in reference to the Joint Video Team (JVT) organization that developed it. (Such partnership and multiple naming is not uncommon. For example, the video compression standard known as MPEG-2 also arose from the partnership between <a href="/wiki/MPEG" class="mw-redirect" title="MPEG">MPEG</a> and the ITU-T, where MPEG-2 video is known to the ITU-T community as H.262.<sup id="cite_ref-10" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-10"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>10<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup>) Some software programs (such as <a href="/wiki/VLC_media_player" title="VLC media player">VLC media player</a>) internally identify this standard as AVC1. </p> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading2"><h2 id="History">History</h2><span class="mw-editsection"><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">[</span><a href="/w/index.php?title=Advanced_Video_Coding&action=edit&section=2" title="Edit section: History"><span>edit</span></a><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">]</span></span></div> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading3"><h3 id="Overall_history">Overall history</h3><span class="mw-editsection"><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">[</span><a href="/w/index.php?title=Advanced_Video_Coding&action=edit&section=3" title="Edit section: Overall history"><span>edit</span></a><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">]</span></span></div> <p>In early 1998, the <a href="/wiki/Video_Coding_Experts_Group" title="Video Coding Experts Group">Video Coding Experts Group</a> (VCEG – ITU-T SG16 Q.6) issued a call for proposals on a project called H.26L, with the target to double the coding efficiency (which means halving the bit rate necessary for a given level of fidelity) in comparison to any other existing video coding standards for a broad variety of applications. <a href="/wiki/VCEG" class="mw-redirect" title="VCEG">VCEG</a> was chaired by <a href="/wiki/Gary_Sullivan_(engineer)" title="Gary Sullivan (engineer)">Gary Sullivan</a> (<a href="/wiki/Microsoft" title="Microsoft">Microsoft</a>, formerly <a href="/wiki/PictureTel" title="PictureTel">PictureTel</a>, U.S.).

In July 2004, the Fidelity Range Extensions (FRExt) project was finalized. From January 2005 to November 2007, the JVT was working on an extension of H.264/AVC towards scalability by an Annex (G) called <a href="/w/index.php?title=Scalable_Video_Coding&action=edit&redlink=1" class="new" title="Scalable Video Coding (page does not exist)">Scalable Video Coding</a> (SVC).

SEI messages are also defined that can contain arbitrary user-defined data. SEI messages do not affect the core decoding process, but can indicate how the video is recommended to be post-processed or displayed. Some other high-level properties of the video content are conveyed in video usability information (VUI), such as the indication of the <a href="/wiki/Color_space" title="Color space">color space</a> for interpretation of the video content.

In the first project to extend the original standard, the JVT then developed what was called the Fidelity Range Extensions (FRExt).

Several other features were also included in the FRExt project, such as adding an 8×8 integer <a href="/wiki/Discrete_cosine_transform" title="Discrete cosine transform">discrete cosine transform</a> (integer DCT) with adaptive switching between the 4×4 and 8×8 transforms, encoder-specified perceptual-based quantization weighting matrices, efficient inter-picture lossless coding, and support of additional color spaces. The design work on the FRExt project was completed in July 2004, and the drafting work on them was completed in September 2004. </p><p>Five other new profiles (see version 7 below) intended primarily for professional applications were then developed, adding extended-gamut color space support, defining additional aspect ratio indicators, defining two additional types of "supplemental enhancement information" (post-filter hint and tone mapping), and deprecating one of the prior FRExt profiles (the High 4:4:4 profile) that industry feedback<sup class="noprint Inline-Template" style="white-space:nowrap;">[<i><a href="/wiki/Wikipedia:Manual_of_Style/Words_to_watch#Unsupported_attributions" title="Wikipedia:Manual of Style/Words to watch"><span title="The material near this tag may use weasel words or too-vague attribution.

Specified in Annex G of H.264/AVC, SVC allows the construction of bitstreams that contain <i>layers</i> of sub-bitstreams that also conform to the standard, including one such bitstream known as the "base layer" that can be decoded by a H.264/AVC <a href="/wiki/Codec" title="Codec">codec</a> that does not support SVC. For temporal bitstream scalability (i.e., the presence of a sub-bitstream with a smaller temporal sampling rate than the main bitstream), complete <a href="/wiki/Network_Abstraction_Layer#Access_Units" title="Network Abstraction Layer">access units</a> are removed from the bitstream when deriving the sub-bitstream. In this case, high-level syntax and inter-prediction reference pictures in the bitstream are constructed accordingly. On the other hand, for spatial and quality bitstream scalability (i.e. the presence of a sub-bitstream with lower spatial resolution/quality than the main bitstream), the NAL (<a href="/wiki/Network_Abstraction_Layer" title="Network Abstraction Layer">Network Abstraction Layer</a>) is removed from the bitstream when deriving the sub-bitstream. In this case, inter-layer prediction (i.e., the prediction of the higher spatial resolution/quality signal from the data of the lower spatial resolution/quality signal) is typically used for efficient coding. The <a href="/w/index.php?title=Scalable_Video_Coding&action=edit&redlink=1" class="new" title="Scalable Video Coding (page does not exist)">Scalable Video Coding</a> extensions were completed in November 2007. </p> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading3"><h3 id="Multiview_video_coding">Multiview video coding</h3><span class="mw-editsection"><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">[</span><a href="/w/index.php?title=Advanced_Video_Coding&action=edit&section=6" title="Edit section: Multiview video coding"><span>edit</span></a><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">]</span></span></div> <p>The next major feature added to the standard was <a href="/wiki/Multiview_Video_Coding" title="Multiview Video Coding">Multiview Video Coding</a> (MVC).

and to provide more flexibility for application to a wide variety of network environments. In particular, some such key features include: </p> <ul><li>Multi-picture <a href="/wiki/Inter_frame" title="Inter frame">inter-picture prediction</a> including the following features: <ul><li>Using previously encoded pictures as references in a much more flexible way than in past standards, allowing up to 16 reference frames (or 32 reference fields, in the case of interlaced encoding) to be used in some cases. In profiles that support non-<a href="/wiki/Network_Abstraction_Layer#Coded_Video_Sequences" title="Network Abstraction Layer">IDR</a> frames, most levels specify that sufficient buffering should be available to allow for at least 4 or 5 reference frames at maximum resolution. This is in contrast to prior standards, where the limit was typically one; or, in the case of conventional "<a href="/wiki/Video_compression_picture_types#Bi-directional_predicted_frames/slices_(B-frames/slices)" title="Video compression picture types">B pictures</a>" (B-frames), two.</li> <li>Variable block-size <a href="/wiki/Motion_compensation" title="Motion compensation">motion compensation</a> (VBSMC) with block sizes as large as 16×16 and as small as 4×4, enabling precise segmentation of moving regions. The supported <a href="/wiki/Luma_(video)" title="Luma (video)">luma</a> prediction block sizes include 16×16, 16×8, 8×16, 8×8, 8×4, 4×8, and 4×4, many of which can be used together in a single macroblock. Chroma prediction block sizes are correspondingly smaller when <a href="/wiki/Chroma_subsampling" title="Chroma subsampling">chroma subsampling</a> is used.</li> <li>The ability to use multiple motion vectors per macroblock (one or two per partition) with a maximum of 32 in the case of a B macroblock constructed of 16 4×4 partitions. The motion vectors for each 8×8 or larger partition region can point to different reference pictures.</li> <li>The ability to use any macroblock type in <a href="/wiki/Video_compression_picture_types#Bi-directional_predicted_frames/slices_(B-frames/slices)" title="Video compression picture types">B-frames</a>, including I-macroblocks, resulting in much more efficient encoding when using B-frames.

These are declared using a profile code (profile_idc) and sometimes a set of additional constraints applied in the encoder. The profile code and indicated constraints allow a decoder to recognize the requirements for decoding that specific bitstream. (And in many system environments, only one or two profiles are allowed to be used, so decoders in those environments do not need to be concerned with recognizing the less commonly used profiles.) By far the most commonly used profile is the High Profile. </p><p>Profiles for non-scalable 2D video applications include the following: </p> <dl><dt>Constrained Baseline Profile (CBP, 66 with constraint set 1)</dt> <dd>Primarily for low-cost applications, this profile is most typically used in videoconferencing and mobile applications. It corresponds to the subset of features that are in common between the Baseline, Main, and High Profiles.</dd> <dt>Baseline Profile (BP, 66)</dt> <dd>Primarily for low-cost applications that require additional data loss robustness, this profile is used in some videoconferencing and mobile applications. This profile includes all features that are supported in the Constrained Baseline Profile, plus three additional features that can be used for loss robustness (or for other purposes such as low-delay multi-point video stream compositing). The importance of this profile has faded somewhat since the definition of the Constrained Baseline Profile in 2009.
