Comment Re:JPEG 2000 (Score 2) 239

This reflects my thoughts... motion jpeg already exists, the new ISO JPEG2000 standard looks good on the surface, probably not much of a leap to code a server/player combo that takes these new wavelet-compressed jpegs and sequence/buffer them.

As a webcaster, we primarily use RealMedia because of the installed base of players. We're getting a lot more requests to use Windows Media, which makes great business sense because I don't have to invest nearly as much capital for the Microsoft products because of the dramatic difference in server pricing between Real and MS.

Seems to me that the new wavelet compression provides an opportunity to create a better streaming application, particularly to the bandwidth-challenged.
