Moving JPEG
M-JPEG
Motion JPEG

    (M-JPEG) A compression technique for
   moving images which applies JPEG still image compression
   to each frame of a moving picture sequence.

   Play-back requires a machine capable of decompressing and
   displaying each JPEG image quickly enough to sustain the
   required frame rate of the picture sequence.

   There is no standard for Moving JPEG as with JPEG, but there
   are JPEG compression chips (for example see <Zoran>) which are designed to work at
   television frame rates and resolutions.

   See also MPEG and MPEG2.
