What is a JPG file?
JPG (or JPEG) stands for Joint Photographic Experts Group, the team that created the standard back in the early 1990s. It’s one of the most common image formats in the world, known for compressing digital photos while retaining acceptable quality.
JPG uses lossy compression, which means some image data is discarded during saving. This makes JPG files smaller, ideal for web use, email, and social sharing — but less ideal for images that require fine detail or multiple edits.
How to open JPG files
JPG files can be opened on virtually any device — Windows, macOS, Android, iOS, Linux — using default apps like Photos, Preview, or third-party software such as Photoshop and GIMP. Even web browsers can display JPGs natively.
This universal support makes JPG the go-to format for photography, online graphics, and digital documents.

What is a H265 file?
H.265, also known as HEVC (High Efficiency Video Coding), is a video compression standard that offers significantly better compression than its predecessor, H.264. It allows for high-quality video at reduced bitrates, making it ideal for 4K and 8K content delivery.
H.265 is widely used in streaming services, digital broadcasting, and modern cameras. Although it requires more processing power for decoding, it provides excellent visual quality and smaller file sizes.
How to open H265 files
H.265 files can be played using VLC, PotPlayer, or modern devices and operating systems with support for HEVC codecs. Some systems may require additional codec installations.
Use AnyConv to convert H.265 files to H.264 or MP4 if you're encountering compatibility issues.
