AVC, namely, Advanced Video Codec, or the full name MPEG-4 AVC, is a video codec (also known as H.264). It is the successor to MPEG-4 ASP (Advanced Simple Profile), which is used by DivX/XviD. MPEG-4 AVC is used by HD DVD, Blu-ray and some HDTV transmissions.
It can be used to produce high quality at relatively low bitrates, and is compatible with devices ranging from standalone DVD and Blu-ray players to portable media players and mobile phones. So AVC video is arguably the most important video standard in use today.
