That'd be h264 (associated patents expired in most of the world), vp9 and av1.
h265 aka HEVC is less common due to dodgy, abusive licensing. Some vendors even disable it with drivers despite hardware support because it is nothing but legal trouble.
- ladyanita22 11mo agoI have the feeling that H265 is more prevalent than VP9
- seabrookmx 11mo agoYouTube uses VP9 so it depends if you're talking "number of applications that use it" or "number of hours watched".
