JPEG XS Encoder

JPEG XS is a low-latency, lightweight codec delivering near-lossless video for real-time IP workflows like live broadcast and remote production.

What is a JPEG XS Encoder?

JPEG XS (Extra Small) is a cutting-edge, lightweight video compression standard designed to deliver visually lossless image quality with ultra-low latency. Engineered for high-performance IP-based workflows, JPEG XS enables real-time video transmission with minimal bandwidth requirements—ideal for live broadcasting, remote production, and high-speed video transport.

Key Features of JPEG XS Encoding

  • Ultra-Low Latency: Compression and decompression occur in milliseconds, ensuring real-time video processing.
  • Visually Lossless Quality: Maintains the integrity of original video content while significantly reducing data rates.
  • Efficient IP Transport: Optimized for SMPTE ST 2110 and IP-based media workflows, ensuring seamless video distribution.
  • Scalability & Flexibility: Supports resolutions from HD to 4K and beyond, adapting to diverse production needs.

With its low processing overhead, JPEG XS is ideal for environments that demand precision, such as live sports, remote production, and cloud-based workflows.
