Fast and highly efficient VVC software encoding
The Fraunhofer Versatile Video Encoder (VVenC) is a fast and efficient "real-world" VVC encoder implementation with the following main features:
- Easy to use encoder implementation with four predefined quality/speed presets;
- Perceptual optimization to improve subjective video quality;
- Frame-level rate control supporting VBR encoding;
- Expert mode encoder interface available, allowing fine-grained control of the encoding process.
More information on how to access, build and use as well as the performance of VVencC can be found in the VVenC whitepaper
