What is a .mjp2 file?
A .mjp2 file is a MJ2 (Motion JPEG 2000). This is an image format — a picture, drawing or graphic.
How to open a .mjp2 file
- GIMP (free) and IrfanView open a very wide range of image formats, including obsolete ones.
- XnView MP is the best bet for unusual or legacy image types.
- Your operating system's built-in viewer may work for mainstream formats.
The registry records this extension against MJ2 (Motion JPEG 2000), so software from that family is the most likely match.
How to convert a .mjp2 file
- Open it in GIMP or XnView and export as .png (lossless) or .jpg (smaller).
