Adobe Premiere Pro Sequence Presets & Editing Mode

Morgan M-JPEG codec Premiere Pro Presets

If you want to edit and preview sequences with Morgan M-JPEG codec in Adobe Premiere Pro, you can download and install Sequence Presets available here.

Sequence Presets

Newly installed M-JPEG HD and SD Sequence Presets are available in the "Morgan Multimedia" folder.

Editing Mode and Video Preview

Editing mode is set to "Custom" and a new Preview File Format called "Morgan AVI" is installed. The Codec is set to "Morgan [MJPG] M-JPEG codec".

Morgan M-JPEG codec Configure

Because Premiere Pro doesn't set and get compression settings with buil-in AVI exporter, these compression settings can't be attached to a Sequence Preset. So be sure the codec is properly configured before editing or exporting a sequence in M-JPEG.

See below correct settings for Progressive Scan ("JPEG" selected).

Morgan M-JPEG codec Configure

If you want to use Interlaced Scan (1080i Sequence Presets) select "M-JPEG".

What is JPEG2000 ?

JPEG2000 is the new international standard for image compression method and file format. This is the successor of the well-known traditional JPEG written by the ISO group Joint Photographic Experts Group.

Contrary to the technology JPEG which used DCT functions, JPEG2000 technology is based on an mathematical algorithm called wavelets to compress image that provides high compression with image quality superior to all existing standard encoding techniques even at low bit rates.

That’s the reason why JPEG2000 has a number of advantages over the JPEG Format.

JPEG2000 Advantages vs. JPEG ?

Higher compression without compromising quality.
Progressive image reconstruction which allows to see full image even during the transmission process.
Define Region of interest that allows to define some important areas to be compressed at a higher quality than other one.
Lossy and lossless compression: have the choice of loosing quality but having little files or preserve all the quality but still saving a lot of space.
Error resilience functionality for noisy channels allows the transmission of JPEG 2000 images in mobile applications.
No artifact with very high compression.
The JP2 file format (.jp2) is XML based metadata.
Easier random access to code stream for reorganization of data while transmission process.

JPEG2000 Application domains ?

JPEG2000 is the new image encoding standard that provides essential features to many emerging imaging applications. Its features make JPEG2000 an excellent solution for :

Internet video and imaging and zoom image applications
Mobile applications such as mobile phone or PDA.
CD-Rom video distribution
Distance learning
Videoconferencing
Video capture systems
Surveillance and secure systems
Medical imaging
Scanners
Digital Cameras and photography
Satellite imagery
Document and image storage
Digital Cinema
Digital long term preservation
