Play video at H.265

Post#1 by Jack » 01 Oct 2016, 19:04

Has anyone view H265-HEVC video on any Desktop yet? I'm buying a Mobius 2 ActionCam Mini Sports Camera DashCam 1080P 60FPS H.265 HEVC H.264 AVC.

I just like Slackware because I think it teach you about Linux to build packages where Ubuntu is like Windows you just install programs you want.

Just tested it.

Wow!! What a superior format! The video is smaller and MUCH clearer. It played fine with my video card using gl.

Code: Select all

mplayer -vo gl_nosw video.mp4
