H265 Support

Many IP cameras provides H265 encoded streams, ExNVR record the stream as it is, no transcoding is done at all. The same thing for the generated HLS playlists.

You can check here for hevc support for your browser.

To reach a wider audience, it's preferable to set the secondary (sub) stream of the camera to encode to H264, if a user cannot play the main stream which is in hevc on the browser, at least he can play the secondary (sub) stream.

Known Issues

• Chrome may not play h265 stream even when the machine supports hardware decoding (this is the case when you use AMD with VA-API)

  An alternative (at least for testing purposes) is to use this.
