intoPIX announced that it has been honored by the Television Academy with a 2025 Engineering, Science & Technology Emmy Award. intoPIX has been recognized with this prestigious award for the creation of JPEG XS, a compression format that is transforming the media and broadcast industry.

Co-created by intoPIX, JPEG XS breaks away from the traditional codec race for maximum compression. Instead, it opens a new path: delivering visually lossless quality with ultra-low latency and minimal complexity, while drastically reducing bandwidth. By efficiently replacing uncompressed video from HD to 8K and beyond, JPEG XS removes long-standing barriers in networks, workflows, and infrastructures—accelerating the transition to IP and cloud-based production. This blue ocean strategy has made JPEG XS a game-changing enabler for real-time broadcast, live production, post-production, professional AV, and data center video processing.

“This Emmy Award is an extraordinary recognition for intoPIX and our team,” said Gaël Rouvroy, CEO and co-founder of intoPIX. “Since the very beginning, our mission has been to push the limits of video compression, combining the highest quality with the lowest latency and complexity. With JPEG XS, intoPIX proposes a true-blue ocean strategy: not competing in the traditional race for ever-higher compression ratios, but instead opening a new direction focused on lower power, lower complexity, and lossless quality to efficiently replace uncompressed video. Today, JPEG XS is enabling broadcasters, studios, and innovators around the world to rethink their workflows, from HD to 8K live production, and to create new possibilities for the future of media.”

This recognition also marks the second Emmy received by intoPIX, following an earlier award for its work on JPEG 2000 in 2014, underlining the company’s long-standing contribution to video innovation. Above all, it celebrates the talent, passion, and relentless efforts of the entire intoPIX team who made this achievement possible. Today, intoPIX offers a complete range of JPEG XS IP cores and SDKs, enabling innovators to seamlessly integrate the standard into their products, workflows, and cloud-based applications.
