This paper explores how JPEG-2000 will perform in an HDTV workflow environment based on standard computer storage. It shows that there is a “sweet spot” in terms of bit rate that is low enough for recording with standard hardware and high enough to get pictures of sufficient quality. The paper addresses the workflow, recording, and compression schemes, with an emphasis on JPEG-2000. The conclusions are based on literature and tests performed to verify the feasibility of JPEG-2000 in a broadcast production workflow.
