v51 v52 31 31 {{{#!div class="box" 32 32 == Choosing an Encoding == 33 The best thing to do is to try them all and choose the one that provides the best results. 33 The defaults should be good enough in most cases and will adapt to changing bandwidth conditions. 34 But if you have specific needs, the best thing to do is to try them all and choose the one that provides the best results. 34 35 35 36 Here are some rough guidelines: … … 38 39 * to save a little bit of bandwidth at the expense of framerate and latency, use lossless encodings: {{{png}}} or {{{webp}}} 39 40 * otherwise, choose {{{h264}}} and tune the speed/quality to suit your needs (see below) 41 * {{{VP9}}} is a good alternative to {{{h264}}} (only usable with version 0.15 onwards - too slow with older versions) 40 42 41 43 The other encodings are somewhat less useful: 42 * [/wiki/Encodings/vpx vpx : VP8] is similar to {{{h264}}} but it does not support all speed and quality tuning, it also subsamples colours which leads to visual degradation. {{{VP9}}} is only usable with version 0.15 onwards.44 * [/wiki/Encodings/vpx vpx : VP8] is similar to {{{h264}}} but it does not support all speed and quality tuning, it also subsamples colours which leads to visual degradation. 43 45 * {{{h265}}} via {{{x265}}} is far too slow to encode 44 46 * {{{jpeg}}} gives lower size/quality than other lossy encodings, use this if the video encodings are not available and you need better compression than {{{png}}} or {{{webp}}} can give you
