HEVC casting questions

HEVC (High Efficiency Video Coding), also known as H.265, is a modern video compression standard that delivers the same quality as H.264 at roughly half the file size. This means 4K and HDR content can be stored and streamed more efficiently. Many modern cameras, iPhones, and video services use HEVC by default, making native HEVC casting support essential.

Most modern Smart TVs, Chromecast Ultra, Chromecast with Google TV, Fire TV Stick 4K, Apple TV 4K, Roku Ultra, and recent Samsung, LG, and Sony TVs all support HEVC decoding natively. LocalCast sends the HEVC stream directly without conversion, so your TV handles the playback at full quality.

Yes. iPhones record video in HEVC (H.265) by default since iOS 11. LocalCast can cast these iPhone recordings directly to your TV without any conversion or quality loss. Simply select the video from your camera roll and cast it to any supported device.

Yes. LocalCast preserves HDR metadata when casting HEVC content, including HDR10, HDR10+, HLG, and Dolby Vision (where supported by the target device). Your HDR content will display with the full dynamic range and color depth on compatible TVs.
