Convert MTV to JFIF

The MTV Raytracing Image Format, named after its creator Mark T. VandeWettering, is a simple, uncompressed true-color raster image format used primarily by the MTV Ray Tracer program. It employs the MTV or PIC file extension and is similar to the binary PPM format. Developed in the early days of ray tracing, the MTV format gained popularity due to its straightforward design and ease of use. It supports true-color images and is often utilized in conjunction with other ray-tracing utilities for rendering high-quality graphics.

The JPEG File Interchange Format (JFIF), developed by the Joint Photographic Experts Group, is a standardized method of storing and transferring JPEG-compressed images. Introduced in 1991, JFIF ensures compatibility and interoperability among different platforms and applications. It is extensively used in digital imaging and multimedia for efficient image compression, which reduces file size without significant loss of quality. As a widely adopted format, JFIF supports a range of devices and software, making it a cornerstone in computer graphics and online image sharing.
