Leadership in IP saves an additional 40 percent on text

Companies like Qualcomm invest a lot of time and engineering effort to help with upcoming standards, and many know that Qualcomm is a leader in 5G. Qualcomm is also committed to Versatile Video Coding (VVC), known as H266, and the company helped to optimize the codec and bring an additional 30 to 40 saving to text-based content, maintaining the same visual quality.

We had a chance to talk to Marta Karczewicz, vice president of technology Qualcomm Technologies, who helped shape what will be known as VVC or H 266. Compared with a raw data file, VVC H 266 offers a 1000x reduction in file size.

Marta’s team helped to compress textual content in the video, something that brought an additional 30 to 40 percent of bandwidth saving on top of close to 40 to 50 percent general reduction compared to H.265.
