About MNG Format

Multiple-image Network Graphics

The ambitious, complex, and largely obsolete animated cousin of PNG.

Overview

MNG (Multiple-image Network Graphics) was designed as the animated equivalent of the PNG format. Just as PNG was created to replace GIF for static images, MNG was intended to replace GIF for animations, offering superior compression, full alpha transparency, and complex features like nested loops and sprites. However, its complexity led to poor adoption.

Technical Details

MNG is a stream-based format that shares the same chunk structure as PNG. It can contain embedded PNG (lossless) or JNG (JPEG-based) images. Unlike a simple filmstrip, MNG is a scriptable animation format; it supports 'sprites', frame deltas (only updating changed pixels), and complex composition rules.

History

Published in 2001 by the creators of PNG. Despite high hopes, browser vendors (like Mozilla) eventually removed support due to the large code footprint and complexity of the library (libmng). The simpler APNG format won the browser war for 'animated images'.

Common Use Cases

  • Legacy Game Assets: Some older game engines used MNG for animated sprites.
  • Archival: Storing animations created in the early 2000s.

Advantages

  • Efficiency
  • Quality

Limitations

  • Dead Format
  • Complexity

About QOI Format

Quite OK Image Format

Lossless compression that is incredibly fast.

Overview

QOI (Quite OK Image Format) is a modern lossless image format created by Dominic Szablewski in 2021. It was designed to be a simpler, faster alternative to PNG, prioritizing encoding and decoding speed over maximum compression ratio.

Technical Details

The QOI specification fits on a single page of paper. It achieves compression ratios similar to PNG but encodes 20x-50x faster and decodes 3x-4x faster. It uses a simple streaming algorithm with a running array of previously seen colors.

History

Released in 2021 as a reaction to the complexity of formats like PNG and the slowness of their reference implementations. It quickly gained viral popularity in the developer community.

Common Use Cases

  • Game Development: Fast asset loading.
  • Embedded Systems: Devices with limited CPU power.

Advantages

  • Speed
  • Simplicity

Limitations

  • Browser Support
  • Compression
