The library is designed for integration into media applications and research environments.
Key Features:
  • Reference implementation of VVC/H.266 standard
  • High-performance video decoding
  • Support for all VVC profiles and levels
  • C++ API for integration
  • Cross-platform compatibility
Use Cases:
  • Media player integration for VVC playback
  • Video compression research and evaluation
  • Development of next-gen streaming services
  • Academic research on video coding standards
Alternatives:
  • x265 – H.265/HEVC encoder, not a VVC decoder
  • libde265 – H.265/HEVC decoder, older standard
  • FFmpeg – Multi-format codec suite with H.264/H.265 support
