JPEG 2000 is a picture-by-picture compression coding defined by ISO/IEC 15444-1 and used for both individual pictures and picture sequences. This standard specifies the mapping of JPEG 2000 codestreams conforming to ISO/IEC 15444-1 and ISO/IEC 15444-15 into a picture essence track of the MXF generic container in both frame-wrapped and clip-wrapped forms. - The MXF generic container is the native essence container of the material exchange format (MXF) file body. The MXF generic container is defined for the interchange of streamable audio-visual material. - This standard defines the data structure at the signal interfaces of networks or storage media. This standard does not define internal storage formats for MXF compliant devices.
