Convert AAI to J2K

The Dune HD AAI file extension, AAI, stands for Alpha-Alpha Image and is a raster image format used by Dune HD media players to display images with transparency, such as icons for Internet radio stations or channels. It stores 32-bit RGBA image data, which includes an alpha channel for transparency. This format is primarily used within Dune HD's ecosystem for organizing and displaying media content. The AAImageGen app, available from Dune HD, allows conversion of images like JPG, PNG, and BMP to AAI format.

The J2K file extension stands for JPEG 2000 Code Stream Syntax, a part of the JPEG 2000 standard developed by the Joint Photographic Experts Group (JPEG). Introduced in 2000, JPEG 2000 offers superior image compression and quality compared to the original JPEG format. The J2K codestream is highly flexible, supporting both lossy and lossless compression, and allows for scalable decoding, which means images can be efficiently accessed at various resolutions and quality levels. This makes J2K ideal for applications requiring high-quality image storage and transmission, such as medical imaging, digital cinema, and satellite imagery.
