I read about many versions, VP9 for android. X264 and x265 and libvpx. Then there is HVEC and AVC.
I find some articles on the netflix blog that x265 is more efficient but i cannot really determine if it is used by netflix. My browser seems to hardware support x264 through the dx11 api.
Then i read some articles :

https://www.extremetech.com/computi...on-video-codecs-like-x265-and-vp9-to-the-test
And i also read on a toms hardware article that x265 on radeon gpus is disabled.
I am lost.
Can someone give me some insights about what is going on ?
I understand vp9 is chosen for android applications because of google support for vp9.
But how does it all piece together on windows ?
