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

[Teazle]

Thanks to Richard Paul, Vargo and Penton for the informative replies. I glanced at the wiki for Xiph Foundation's Daala. Says it's in alpha since last year (geez these guys work fast), then links to some important technical stuff I lack the background to grasp. But it does say the Daala codec aims to be a generational leap over existing HEVC. Exciting stuff. Maybe in a few years they really will be able to get 4K film file sizes down to 100GB or so without too much compromise.
