How to Convert Videos from and to H.265 Files Quickly and Easily

Why a lot of people choose to convert video files to H.265?

H.265, also known as High Efficiency Video Coding (HEVC), is the successor standard to H.264, and has generated huge optimism given Industry's struggle with shortage of bandwidth, spectrum, storage and imminent need to take growing HD content for multi platform delivery. It compresses video files to 50% with the most proficient encoding format today, MPEG-4, or also known as the H.264. That'll be ? the size of a file compressed with MPEG 2 codec which many of cable television companies are still using. More significantly, H.265 is being used to compress video files that have 4K resolution - and conceivably even 8K resolution files sooner or later - therefore it could be resourcefully delivered. And that's why more and more people want to convert their video files to H.265 format since it's the best format for video experience.
