Description: The "Quick Picture Viewer /386" (hereafter referred to as QPV/386) is a viewer for JPEG image files. It is about twice as fast as other common JPEG viewers. Compare it yourself, you'll be surprised.

JPEG (Joint Photographic Experts Group, pronounce "Jay-Peg" is an image file format which uses a "lossy" compression. JPEG images (they have usually a "JPG" file extension) are normally very small and offer better compression than any other image format.

Decoding of JPEG images is a rather complicated process, thus it needs a lot of computing power and performance. QPV/386 takes advantage of the advanced features of 80386, 80486 and Pentium (586) CPUs, and it uses large look-up tables instead of formulas. Well, I don't want to get into details. It's fast, that's all you could want to know
