published as ITU-T Recommendation T.835 and ISO/IEC International Standard 29199-5. The following notable software products natively support JPEG XR: The following notable software support JPEG XR through a Plug-in: The following APIs and software frameworks support JPEG XR and may be used in other software to provide JPEG XR support to end users: The 2011 video game Rage employs JPEG XR compression to compress its textures. Licensing Microsoft has patents on the technology in JPEG XR. A Microsoft representative stated in a January 2007 interview that in order to encourage the adoption and use of HD Photo, the specification is made available under the Microsoft Open Specification Promise, which asserts that Microsoft allows implementation of the specification for free, and will not file suits on the patented technology for its implementation, as reportedly stated by Josh Weisberg, director of Microsoft's Rich Media Group. As of 15 August 2010, Microsoft made the resulting JPEG XR standard available under its Community Promise. In July 2010, reference software to implement the JPEG XR standard was published as ITU-T Recommendation T.835 and International Standard ISO/IEC 29199-5. Microsoft included these publications in the list of specifications covered by its Community Promise. In April 2013, Microsoft released an open source JPEG XR library under the BSD licence. This resolved any licensing issues with the library being implemented in software packages distributed under popular open source licences such as the GNU General Public License, with which the previously released "HD Photo Device Porting Kit" was incompatible. See also AVIF, a compression format by Google, Mozilla and others in a group called the Alliance for Open Media JPEG, an image format used for lossy compression (JPEG XR lossy is comparable with it.) JPEG 2000, an improvement intended to replace JPEG by the JPEG committee as of 2000 JPEG XS, format for image and video with very low latency, more efficient for streaming high quality video JPEG XL, is a royalty-free raster-graphics file format that supports both lossy and lossless compression. It is designed to outperform existing raster formats and thus to become their universal replacement. PNG, a format for lossless compression, which JPEG XR lossless is comparable with WebP, a format with lossy or lossless compression, proposed by Google in 2010 Better Portable Graphics, a proposal by Fabrice Bellard in 2014 based on HEVC HEIF, a 2015 format based on MPEG-H Part 12 (ISO/IEC 23008-12) and HEVC.
