Understanding Video Compression: Factors That Influence Bitrate and Encoding Strategies

Video bitrate depends on content complexity, resolution, frame rate, and the chosen codec and bitrate‑control method, with modern encoders like HEVC and AV1 using advanced prediction, transform, quantization and entropy coding to dramatically reduce size while preserving perceived quality for smoother streaming.
