Seems like most of the current 4/8/16 H.265 NVRs are using the HiSilicon Hi3798M processor. In the datasheet it lists:
Video and Image Encoding
H.264 BP/MP/HP@level 4.2 video encoding, maximum
1x1080p@30 fps or 2x720p@30 fps decoding
Variable bit rate (VBR) or constant bit rate (CBR) mode
Low-delay encoding
Encoding of multiple region of interests (ROIs)
Video Decoding (HiVXE 2.0 Processing Engine)
H.265/HEVC Main/Main10 profile@level 5.1 high-tier,
maximum 4K x 2K@60 fps and 1x1080p@30 fps
simultaneous decoding
H.264/AVC BP/MP/HP@level 5.1; H.264/AVC MVC,
maximum 4K x 2K@30 fps decoding
Sounds to me like these NVRs may support true H.265 decoding but any sort of encoding of H.265 is software based or just faked and using H.264. Thoughts?
