How To Play HEVC (THIS FILE)

H.265/HEVC is a more advanced video codec than H.264, offering better compression quality at lower file sizes. To play HEVC files smoothly, a computer needs a dual-core processor and updated player software like MPC-HC or VLC installed along with codec packs like LAV Filters. On older or weaker PCs, changing the renderer in MPC-HC to madVR can help playback issues. Smart TVs and newer devices may play HEVC files directly, while older devices may require firmware updates or streaming files to an HEVC-compatible device via HDMI.

How to play H.

265/HEVC

Update September 2019:


My slowest computer a Alienware Alpha with i7-6700T and GTX 960 has started having
issues playing back my 4K content WHILE also encoding video. To my suprise moving
MPC-HC from the default "Enhanced Video Renderer (custom presenter)" to "madVR"
defaults has allowed smooth playback.
Something to try if you are having playback issues on your PC.

Simple Answer:
On PC click the link for the "Ninite K-Lite Codecs Unattended Silent Installer and
Updater", which I have included. It will go to the Ninite website with an installer
for my preferred player MPC-HC x64 and the KLite Codec pack.
Ninite, installs the correct software for your system, with none of the bundled
ware, and all the annoying settings turned off. This is the exact file I put on all
three of my machines to play back videos.

Longer Answer:
This current-generation video format/codec H.265/HEVC is one of the best and is
more advanced codecs than the current popular format H.264. It's named HEVC which
stands for High Efficiency Video Codec and offers much better compression when
comparing with H.264 (Lower file size, far better quality).

If you want to play this smoothly, you need to use a device/PC with at least dual-
core processor. You must update your player to latest version. Also, if you use
your PC to watch it, installing LAV Filter will help you a lot if you want to use
KMPlayer or PotPlayer. Many updated players have native support for the codec.

If your Device doesn't support H.265 you can try updating your firmware or you can
hook your Laptop or x265 compatible device to the TV with HDMI or Wireless
connection and stream the video.

Smart TV's: Some modern and advanced TVs can play these files directly. These have
all played correctly on a Vizio M43-C1. HEVC playback is supposed to be a
requirement for all 4K TVs as well.

**HDR Users**
To this point none of my files have been HDR. If I ever make an HDR file I will put
HDR in the title. Many users with HDR player have stated that the colors are all
wrong on my encodes from 4K HRD sources. That is due to your player assuming the
file is HDR. If you play my file with a non-HDR player, it will look like the
screen shots. Try MPC-HC with no setting changes. Do not use MadVR if you are
experiencing this issue.

LAV Filters - https://github.com/Nevcairiel/LAVFilters/releases (if you like
tweaking, otherwise don't worry about it)

Windows Sound:
A tip for users, Windows stupidly defaults all audio to 2ch. For the best
experience you need to adjust your sound settings in several locations.
Playback Devices-> Configure - Set to match your physical speaker set up.
Playback Devices-> Properties-> Advanced - Increase sound output fidelity to your
liking.
LAC Audio Decoder-> Mixing - Set speaker configuration to physical.

To play on Android, use MX Player

Mac
HEVC 4K Ultra HD Media Player VLC for Mac OS X
