The Multiview extension of HEVC (a.k.a. MV-HEVC) is an extension profile of HEVC which provides means to efficiently encode content with multiple camera views to allow new stereoscopic video applications. Allegro DVT’s MV-HEVC streams cover resolutions up Level 6.1 and comprise test sets to check multiple syntax elements of MV-HEVC.

HEVC Screen Content Coding (a.k.a. HEVC-SCC) extensions improve compression efficiency for non-camera-captured video with significant graphics, text or animation content. It can be used in applications such as wireless display and screen sharing.
