'''Motion JPEG 2000''' (MJ2 or MJP2) is a file format for motion sequences of [[JPEG 2000]] [[Image|image]]s and associated [[Engineering:Audio signal|audio]], based on the [[MP4]] and [[Software:QuickTime|QuickTime]] format. Filename extensions for Motion JPEG 2000 video files are '''.mj2''' and '''.mjp2''', as defined in RFC 3745.

== ISO Standards ==
MJ2, first defined by Part 3 of the ISO Standard for JPEG 2000 ISO/IEC 15444 in November 2001<ref name=j2kpart3>{{cite web|title=Motion JPEG 2000 Part 3|url=http://www.jpeg.org/jpeg2000/j2kpart3.html|website=Joint Photographic Experts Group, JPEG, and Joint Bi-level Image experts Group, JBIG|access-date=21 June 2014|url-status=dead|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20121005163250/http://jpeg.org/jpeg2000/j2kpart3.html|archive-date=5 October 2012}}</ref> [http://www.iso.org/iso/home/store/catalogue_tc/catalogue_detail.htm?csnumber=41570 (ISO/IEC 15444-3:2002)] as a standalone document, has later been defined by [http://www.iso.org/iso/home/store/catalogue_tc/catalogue_detail.htm?csnumber=41570 ISO/IEC 15444-3:2007], [http://www.iso.org/iso/home/store/catalogue_tc/catalogue_detail.htm?csnumber=52879 ISO/IEC 15444-3:2007/Amd 1:2010], additional profiles for archiving applications, and by [http://www.iso.org/iso/catalogue_detail.htm?csnumber=61989 ISO/IEC 15444-12] which defines the JPEG 2000 [[ISO base media file format|base media format]], which contains the timing, structure, and media information for timed sequences of media data.

The standard is available for download from ITU-T as their [http://www.itu.int/rec/T-REC-T.802/en Recommendation T.802].<ref>{{cite web | url=http://www.itu.int/rec/T-REC-T.802/en | title=T.802 : Information technology - JPEG 2000 image coding system: Motion JPEG 2000 | date=January 2005 | access-date=21 June 2014}}</ref>

== MPEG vs MJ2 ==
Motion JPEG2000 was always intended to coexist with MPEG. Unlike MPEG, MJ2 does not implement inter-frame coding; each frame is coded independently using JPEG 2000. This makes MJ2 more resilient to propagation of errors over time, more scalable, and better suited to networked and point-to-point environments, with additional advantages over MPEG with respect to random frame access,<ref name="eetimes_doc_id=1201549">{{cite web|last1=Hunter|first1=Jill|title=Digital cinema reels from motion JPEG2000 advances|url=http://www.eetimes.com/document.asp?doc_id=1201549|website=EETimes|access-date=21 June 2014}}</ref> but at the expense of increased storage and bandwidth requirements.

== History ==
From 1997 to 2000, the [[JPEG 2000]] [[Image compression|image compression]] standard was developed by a [[Joint Photographic Experts Group]] (JPEG) committee chaired by Swiss-Iranian engineer Touradj Ebrahimi (later the JPEG president).<ref>{{cite book |last1=Taubman |first1=David |last2=Marcellin |first2=Michael |title=JPEG2000 Image Compression Fundamentals, Standards and Practice: Image Compression Fundamentals, Standards and Practice |date=2012 |publisher=Springer Science & Business Media |isbn=9781461507994 |url=https://books.google.com/books?id=y7HeBwAAQBAJ&pg=PA402}}</ref> In contrast to the original 1992 [[JPEG]] standard, which is a [[Discrete cosine transform|discrete cosine transform]] (DCT) based [[Lossy compression|lossy compression]] format for static digital images, JPEG 2000 is a [[Discrete wavelet transform|discrete wavelet transform]] (DWT) based compression standard that could be adapted for motion imaging video compression with the Motion JPEG 2000 extension. JPEG 2000 technology was later selected as the video coding standard for [[Engineering:Digital cinema|digital cinema]] in 2004.<ref>{{cite book |last1=Swartz |first1=Charles S. |title=Understanding Digital Cinema: A Professional Handbook |date=2005 |publisher=Taylor & Francis |isbn=9780240806174 |page=147 |url=https://books.google.com/books?id=tYw3ehoBnjkC&pg=PA147}}</ref>
