In addition, I'd like to note that with software decoding, the level chosen at encoding time has absolutely no relevance. For hardware decoding, it is said to have some usefulness but note that afaik all hardware suppliers do not guarantee to support a particular level in their hardware. The only known effect of "level" is that some hardware decoders in software (read: FFmpeg) refuse to start decoding certain levels...
