AVC and H.264 are synonymous. The standard is known by the full names "ISO/IEC 14496-10" and "ITU-T Recommendation H.264". In addition, a number of alternate names are used (or have been) in reference to this standard. These include:* MPEG-4 part 10* MPEG-4 AVC* AVC* MPEG-4 (in the broadcasting world MPEG4 part 2 is ignored)* H.264* JVT (Joint Video Team, nowadays rarely used referring to actual spec)* H.26L (early drafts went by this name) A competing and alternative to AVC/H.264 is Microsoft's VC-1.  * VC-1 is supposed to be used for HD-DVD* HD-DVD is a competitor with BlueRay* BlueRay already uses AVC/H.264
