H.264/H.265/AV1 Parameter Tuning for Practical Compression
Actualizado: 19/12/2025
Codec Parameters: Practical Tuning
H.264 essentials
Profiles/levels for compatibility, B‑frames and reference frames, presets/tunes (film, grain), and sensible key‑int settings for streaming and editing.
H.265 (HEVC) essentials
CTU sizes, presets, strong compression at high resolutions, hardware decode considerations on older devices, and HDR signaling basics.
AV1 essentials
Encoder speed levels, tile usage, film/grain synthesis, current hardware support realities, and when AV1 is worth the extra time.
Bitrate and quality control
CRF vs two‑pass targets, VBV/HRD constraints to limit peaks, and how to avoid buffering or platform rejections.
Compatibility tips
Favor H.264 for broad playback; verify H.265/AV1 support on target platforms; provide fallbacks where needed.
Example recipes
Web 1080p: H.264 CRF ~22, reasonable preset; 4K archive: H.265 two‑pass with target bitrate; social clips: AV1 with moderate speed preset for size savings.
