Extensiones de vídeo HEVC del fabricante

Play HEVC H.265 videos on Windows 10 and Windows 11 with hardware decoding support. Extensiones de vídeo HEVC del fabricante is the official codec extension that lets you stream and watch 4K movies encoded in HEVC format using Windows's native video player, Películas y TV.

Most modern 4K content, including films and high-resolution streaming, uses HEVC compression. Without this codec installed, your system cannot decode these files. Microsoft provides this extension through device manufacturers on new computers, but you can download and install it free on any existing Windows machine.

Hardware decoding transforms your viewing experience. Instead of forcing your processor and graphics card to decode HEVC through software—which drains system resources and generates heat—this extension uses your GPU to handle the work natively. The result: smoother playback, lower CPU and GPU usage, cooler operation, and significantly longer battery life on laptops. When you're watching locally stored 4K films or streaming HEVC content, your system works more efficiently, staying quieter and consuming far less power.

Installation is straightforward. Once added to your system, any video player using Windows media codecs can play HEVC files without additional configuration. You'll immediately notice the performance difference, especially when viewing high-resolution content that would otherwise stutter or drain your battery in minutes.

This extension is designed for users who work with or consume 4K video regularly, whether for entertainment or professional tasks. Photographers and videographers who export in HEVC, streamers who watch 4K content, and anyone running modern Windows systems will benefit from having native codec support.
