New H.265 twice as efficient as H.264!

[vargo]

I wonder what encoder they stole this time.

I would not bother to waste any more breath on these guys.

Bitrate and size are directly related. bitrate (of all streams) x runtime = size

It allows you to use a lower bitrate (thus lower size, or lower bandwidth requirements) while maintaining the same quality. Or to use the same bitrate while increasing the quality.
