Most modern Micromkv releases use the H.265/HEVC codec rather than the older H.264. HEVC is approximately 50% more efficient, meaning it can deliver the same visual quality at half the bitrate. However, encoding in HEVC is computationally intensive, which is why these releases often take time to surface after a show airs.
