The M-JPEG2000 codec (MJ2K) is a video adaptation of the JPEG2000 standard. M-JPEG2000 will treat a video stream as a series of still photos, compressing each individually. This codec is often used when high compression and interoperability are necessary. This video codec registers into the Windows collection of multimedia drivers.
