Origin in HEVC
{{further|High Efficiency Video Coding#Version 2 profiles|High Efficiency Video Coding#Main Still Picture}}HEVC has several profiles defined for extending its intra-frame encoding to still images at various bit depths and color formats, including "Main Still Picture," "Main 4:4:4 Still Picture," and "Main 4:4:4 16 Still Picture profiles." BPG is a wrapper for the "Main 4:4:4 16 Still Picture" profile up to 14 bits per sample.Specifications
BPG's container format is intended to be more suited to a generic image format than the raw bitstream format used in HEVC (which is otherwise ordinarily used within some other wrapper format, such as the .mp4 file format).WEB,weblink BPG specification, 17 November 2017, BPG supports the color formats known as (chroma subsampling|4:4:4), (4:2:2), and (4:2:0). Support for a separately coded extra channel is also included for an alpha channel or the fourth channel of a CMYK image. Metadata support is included for Exif, ICC profiles, and XMP.Color space support is included for YCbCr with ITU-R BT.601, BT.709, and BT.2020 (non-constant luminance) definitions, YCgCo, RGB, CMYK, and grayscale.Support for HEVC's lossy and lossless data compression is included. BPG supports animation.Patents
According to Bellard's site BPG may be covered by some of the patents on HEVC, but any device licensed to support HEVC will also be covered for BPG. Patent issues may prevent JPEG replacement by BPG despite BPG's better technical performance.WEB,weblink BPG, a still-image format from video compression, LWN.net,Other proposed JPEG replacements
