MainConcept™ JPEG2000 is a full version codec Plug-In for MainConcept™ Reference 2.0. It enables the user to create fully J2K compliant streams for Digital Cinema, including MXF support.


MainConcept JPEG2000 is a software module for video stream encoding into J2K (ISO/IEC 15444-1) streams within the MainConcept Reference 2.0 application. The new version now allows the export into the renowned MXF file format.

It offers professional features such as watch folder and batch list encoding. Additionally, it includes a powerful capture engine* that allows you to capture from camcorders, webcams, etc. in their native or another format if available.

Here is a list of supported formats in Reference JPEG2000:

  • DCI 2k
  • DCI 4k
  • J2k Lossy
  • J2k Lossless

DCI (Digital Cinema Initiative) adopted JPEG2000 for video encoding of motion pictures. Current movie distribution and presentation from movie rolls is expected to be replaced by digital projectors that will play high-res mj2 streams with superior image and sound quality.

MainConcept JPEG2000 offers full DCI compliance to ISO/IEC 15444-1 Amd1, Profile 3 and Profile 4, for Digital Cinema. It features multiple resolutions, alpha channel as well as RGB and YUV color spaces. The codec gives you exact control over the final bitrate in a single coding pass, so you do not need to adjust quality factor and recompress.

Many powerful audio and video filters, such as color correction, timecode insertion, audio normalization, etc. make Reference 2.0 the perfect transcoding tool for every production environment that requires professional quality and performance.

*Capturing is only available in Reference for Windows.
