Lagarith

Lagarith is a very effective lossless video codec for Windows and is free software (GNU GPL). It was developed by Ben Greenwood.

In many cases, the codec is more effective than HuffYUV CorePNG and LCL codec. On the homepage it is stated that in a typical DVD movie compression by 10 to 30 % is better than HuffYUV.

The codec provides the ability to store the video in the RGBA color spaces, RGB, YUY2 and YV12.

The compression speed is comparable to HuffYUV and therefore very fast. For some time Lagarith also dominates multithreading, which leads to multi-core processors to a significant speed increase.

Lagarith uses the FOURCC Code: lags.
