Motion JPEG is a two field per frame format (like ye olde TV) while Photo JPEG is a single frame progressive format. There is nothing random nor messed up about the naming.<br><br><div class="gmail_quote">On Wed, Nov 30, 2011 at 9:04 PM, Hans-Christoph Steiner <span dir="ltr"><<a href="mailto:hans@at.or.at">hans@at.or.at</a>></span> wrote:<br>

</div>I say 'aka' because unfortunately its not that simple. I believe that Apple labeled JPEG in .mov as "Motion JPEG" for a while, and it was just a JPEG codec. But it was not MJPEG. So the whole naming is messed up.<br>

In any case, JPEG is the one that most people want.<br>
