    AV1 AVIF

    AV1 AVIF

    AV1 Image File Format Specification - ISO-BMFF/HEIF derivative

    AV1 AVIF is the official specification and reference design for the AV1 Image File Format (AVIF), defining how AV1-encoded bitstreams are packaged into the HEIF container format (based on ISOBMFF) to produce AVIF files. The project outlines the syntax and semantics required for AVIF compliance, including support for multiple image profiles, color depths, chroma subsampling modes, HDR/WCG, alpha channels, animation/image sequences, and various color-space/bit-depth combinations — making AVIF a versatile, modern image format suitable for both simple photos and advanced imagery needing high fidelity. The specification ensures interoperability across encoders and decoders, providing guidelines so that images created by any compliant AVIF encoder can be reliably decoded by compliant decoders. As adoption grows, AV1 AVIF plays a crucial role in promoting a royalty-free, open, high-efficiency image standard that competes with older formats such as JPEG and newer proprietary ones.

    EasyHTML5Video

    Create videos for your website that look amazing on any devices

    HTML5 is the fastest growing web development trend and HTML5 video as a part of HTML5 becomes the new natural way to show video online. iPad, iPhone, Android, all new browsers declare the support for HTML5 video. It's great, but what is the usual route to create HTML5 video? First you need to find converters and make three versions of your video - .OGG, MP4, WebM.

And finally, you extract an image for poster and write batch lines of code to combine all of it... Quite complicated? Forget about it with EasyHTML5Video! All it takes is 3 easy steps to convert any of your video to HTML5: 1. Drag-n-drop video file to Easy HTML5 Video; 2. Set poster image, select codecs, tune settings; 3. Press "Start". As a result you'll get an html page with all necessary code, images, and videos. EasyHTML5Video makes your life easier with HTML5 video!
