What is VVC?

Versatile Video Coding (VVC), also known as H.266, is a video compression standard developed by the Joint Video Experts Team (JVET). It is the successor to HEVC (H.265) and aims to achieve significant improvements in compression efficiency, enabling higher quality video at lower bitrates. VVC is commonly used for video streaming, broadcasting, and storage, supporting a wide range of resolutions including 4K and 8K.
