Let’s UNZIP the video data to find the hidden Ice-berg file size !!

We all know the compressed video size which can be downloaded, copied to harddisk. What if the video files are uncompressed and it is in its RAW state. Lets make our hand dirt !.

To do the experiment, Following are required

1. A sample video file
2. Decoder ( ffmpeg, Intel Decoders, MainConcept Decoders)
3. And some interests to do the following.

FFmpeg

ffmpeg -i video.265 -vcodec rawvideo -pix_fmt yuv420p ffmpeg_out.yuv

MainConcept

sample_dec_hevc -i video.h265 -o mainconcept_output.yuv

Intel Decoders

[intel sample]

sample_decode.exe h265 -i big_bug_bunny_480p.265 -o out.yuv

[media sdk tutorials]

simple_decode_hevc10.exe big_bug_bunny_480p.265 outptu.yuv
