Frequently Asked Questions
What is a .mjp2 file?
A .mjp2 file is a MJP2 file.
What are the magic bytes for .mjp2 files?
The magic bytes for MJP2 files are 00 00 00 0C 6A 50 20 20 0D 0A 87 0A at byte offset 0. These bytes uniquely identify the file format regardless of the file extension.
How do I validate a .mjp2 file?
To validate a .mjp2 file, read the first bytes of the file and compare them against the known magic bytes (00 00 00 0C 6A 50 20 20 0D 0A 87 0A) at offset 0. This is more reliable than checking the file extension alone, as extensions can be renamed.
What is the MIME type for .mjp2 files?
