Access Advance Announces HEVC Advance and VVC Advance Pricing through 2030

BOSTON, July 22, 2025--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Access Advance LLC ("Advance") today announced the results of several significant decisions by the Licensors in both the HEVC Advance and VVC Advance Patent Pools. Both patent pools opted to maintain their current royalty rates and caps for Licensees who sign before December 31, 2025, and to extend an incentive that aligns the royalty caps for Advance's Multi-Codec Bridging Agreement ("MCBA") and the VVC Advance Patent Pool for Licensees who sign the MCBA during the same period. The result is that Licensees who join the HEVC Advance program, gaining access to more than 27,000 patents, on or before December 31, 2025, can lock in current rates and caps through 2030. This protection applies both to ongoing royalty obligations and calculation of royalties due for past sales. Additionally, both current and new HEVC Advance Licensees who join the VVC Advance Patent Pool and execute the MCBA by December 31, 2025, will enjoy MCBA royalty caps that match the royalty caps for the VVC Advance program. This reflects an extension of an incentive that expired June 30, 2022, and locks in current rates through 2030, effectively reducing the current MCBA royalty caps and reinforcing Access Advance's commitment to rewarding early adopters of its platform licensing approach. Beginning on January 1, 2026, the HEVC royalty rates will be updated to align HEVC Advance pricing with the existing VVC Advance royalty rate structure, which the VVC Advance Licensors voted to maintain at current levels through 2030, making the value proposition of the MCBA even more beneficial for Licensees across Access Advance's video codec platform licensing programs. "Access Advance is pleased that both groups of Licensors opted for marketplace stability and predictability with their decisions largely to maintain rates and caps at existing levels and providing an additional incentive for Licensees to sign the MCBA. After nearly a decade of stable HEVC rates, the measured adjustment for Licensees joining after 2025 reflects the tremendous growth and value that the HEVC Advance Patent Pool now delivers to the marketplace in light of the increased prevalence of HEVC devices and content," said Peter Moller, CEO of Access Advance. "When we launched, we anticipated coverage of approximately 35% of all HEVC standard essential patents. Today, our pool represents an estimated 75-80% of the global HEVC patent landscape – more than doubling our initial projections. The approved rate adjustment of 25%, which will go into effect for new Licensees on January 1, 2026, while less than a full doubling that our coverage would justify, ensures fair compensation for innovators while maintaining our commitment to transparent, FRAND licensing. And, with these changes, there are clear benefits to a company joining our VVC program and securing the MCBA's discounts even if their products do not yet include VVC functionality." Industry-Leading Patent Coverage The HEVC Advance Patent Pool has evolved from its initial launch with fewer than 500 patents to become the industry's most comprehensive licensing solution, now covering over 27,000 patents essential to H.265/HEVC technology. This dramatic expansion represents the largest consolidation of HEVC standard-essential patents available through any single licensing program globally. The patent pool's success in attracting major patent holders demonstrates the market's confidence in Access Advance's balanced approach to intellectual property licensing. Recent additions include leading technology companies across mobile devices, consumer electronics, automotive, and emerging IOT applications. Opportunity for Flexibility, Savings and Efficiencies Access Advance encourages both current licensees and prospective partners to evaluate their multi-codec licensing strategies before the December 31, 2025 deadline. Companies implementing both HEVC and next-generation VVC technologies can realize significant cost savings and operational efficiencies through the MCBA structure. The alignment of HEVC rates with VVC rates also creates opportunities for companies to adopt a unified approach to video codec licensing across their product portfolios, simplifying compliance obligations while accessing the industry's most comprehensive patent coverage, and providing maximum flexibility for future technology adoption. For licensing inquiries and detailed rate information, interested parties should contact Access Advance at licensing@ About Access Advance: Access Advance LLC is an independent licensing administrator company formed to lead the development, administration, and management of patent pools for licensing essential patents of the most important video codec technologies. Access Advance provides a transparent and efficient licensing mechanism for both patent owners and patent implementers. Access Advance manages and administers the HEVC Advance Patent Pool for licensing over 27,000 patents essential to H.265/HEVC technology and the VVC Advance Patent Pool for licensing essential patents to VVC/H.266 technology. The company's Multi-Codec Bridging Agreement provides eligible licensees with a single discounted royalty rate structure for licensees participating in both the HEVC Advance and VVC Advance pools. In addition, Access Advance offers the VDP Pool, a comprehensive licensing solution for video streaming services covering HEVC, VVC, VP9, and AV1 codecs.

One of the Best Alexa+ Features Has Been Delayed

Alexa+ is Amazon's upgraded assistant with generative AI for better natural language understanding. New features include a desktop experience for sharing information to enhance Alexa's knowledge. Web interface for Alexa+ was delayed, now expected no sooner than July 31st. Earlier this year, Amazon announced a revamped and upgraded assistant experience called "Alexa+." This "smarter, more conversation, more capable" assistant is free for Prime subscribers, but you'll need to wait a bit longer for one of its best features. Alexa+ is a new version of Alexa that has been infused with generative AI. Think of it like Amazon's version of Gemini. The promise is that it will be better at understanding natural language—which is also Google's hope in replacing Google Assistant. Amazon also claims it will get better over time as it adjusts to your schedules and preferences. One of the features that Amazon showed off alongside Alexa+ was a new desktop expirience. This is where you can share information with Alexa to build up its knowledge base. A few examples Amazon gave were sending a picture of a live music schedule to have Alexa add the details to your calendar, and uploading study materials to have Alexa build a quiz for you. Alexa+ will also be available on the desktop in a similar format as ChatGPT, where you can enter prompts. Now, these features will also be present in the mobile apps, but there previously wasn't a great way to do any of this on the desktop. Amazon's web apps are notoriously not very good. Originally, the web interface was supposed to launch by the end of June—which we've obviously already passed. The new target is "no sooner than July 31," according to documents seen by The Washington Post. Amazon says "around 90 percent of the features announced in February are already available" for Alexa+, but the web interface is not one of them. You can still sign up to be notified when Alexa+ is available for you, or skip the line and buy an Echo Show 8, 15, or 21 to get early access. For non-Prime subscribers, Alexa+ is $15 per month or $139 per year. Via: AFTVnews
