It is really nice to know that HEVC can handle ultra HD called UHD. UHD video files have large size up to
8192×4320 pixels. So if you want to transmit this amount of data using older codecs, you should wait too much time. HEVC uses CTU (Coding Tree Unit) and other professional method of increasing Intra prediction to increase block sizes and sample precision (Up to 1/8-sample). Therefore, It can send a video file by half of the bits which are used for H.264, i.e., 50% of the H.264 bit rate with the same quality. The reference software for H.264 is JM and you can download it from this link: http://iphome.hhi.de/suehring/tml/download/
After downloading, just build the whole solution using Microsoft Visual Studio (Maybe free IDE version you want to use!)
https://www.visualstudio.com/
After building the solution there should be and .exe file lencode.exe and ldecode.exe. Using these exe files you can run the program. Also, by editing the .conf or config file you could change the way your video file is encoded/decoded. please feel free to comment any problem you may encounter during the procedure.
Although the way it is compiled is the same for HEVC, it should be downloded using SVN subversion client for example you can download one from this link:
http://www.sliksvn.com/en/download
After downloading, just please add this svn link in its field and let it go :):
https://hevc.hhi.fraunhofer.de/svn/svn_HEVCSoftware/trunk/
It will download all that is necessary with all the archive up to the latest version.
All is the same as before to compile and run the program.
Also for several useful and standard video files you can refer to this link:
https://media.xiph.org
and for YUV player (if you don't have one :)), just please refer to this link:
https://sourceforge.net/projects/raw-yuvplayer/
Also, if you want to start, you van use this config file:
https://files.fm/u/kd8kpq5c
This file is random access and can be found in config directory.
