H.264 is an industry standard for video compression, the process of converting digital video into a format that takes up less storage when it is stored or transmitted.
Video compression or video coding is an essential feature for applications such as CCTV Camera, digital television, DVD and Blu-Ray disks, mobile TV, video conferencing and internet video streaming. Standardising video compression makes it possible for products from different manufacturer encoders, decoders and storage media to inter-operate. An encoder converts video into a compressed format and a decoder converts compressed video back into an uncompressed format.
H.264 is known for being one of the codec standards for Blu-ray Discs, all Blu-ray Disc players must be able to decode H.264. It is also widely used by streaming internet sources, such as videos from Vimeo, YouTube, and the iTunes Store, web software such as the Adobe Flash Player and Microsoft Silverlight, and also various HDTV broadcasts over terrestrial (ATSC, SBTVD, DVB-T or DVB-T2), cable (DVB-C) and satellite (DVB-S and DVB-S2).
In conclusion, rest assure that most of our CCTV cameras use H.264 compression technology. You will have the best quality of video footage during the internet transmission
