==Cooperation with other groups==

=== MPEG-2 ===
[[MPEG-2]] development included a joint project between MPEG and [[ITU-T]] Study Group 15 (which later became ITU-T SG16), resulting in publication of the [[MPEG-2 Systems]] standard (ISO/IEC 13818-1, including its [[MPEG transport stream|transport streams]] and [[MPEG program stream|program streams]]) as ITU-T H.222.0 and the [[MPEG-2 Video]] standard (ISO/IEC 13818-2) as ITU-T H.262. Sakae Okubo (NTT), was the ITU-T coordinator and chaired the agreements on its requirements.

===Joint Video Team===
'''Joint Video Team''' (JVT) was joint project between [[ITU-T Study Group 16|ITU-T SG16]]/Q.6 (Study Group 16 / Question 6) – [[VCEG]] (Video Coding Experts Group) and ISO/IEC JTC 1/SC 29/WG 11 – MPEG for the development of a video coding ITU-T Recommendation and ISO/IEC International Standard.<ref name="wg11-structure" /><ref>{{cite web |url=http://www.itu.int/ITU-T/news/jvtpro.html |title=ITU-T and ISO/IEC to produce next generation video coding standard |date=2002-02-08 |access-date=2010-03-08}}</ref> It was formed in 2001 and its main result was [[H.264/MPEG-4 AVC]] (MPEG-4 Part 10), which reduces the data rate for video coding by about 50%, as compared to the then-current ITU-T H.262 / MPEG-2 standard.<ref>{{cite web |url=http://www.itu.int/ITU-T/studygroups/com16/jvt/ |title=Joint Video Team |author=ITU-T |access-date=2010-03-07}}</ref> The JVT was chaired by Dr. Gary Sullivan, with vice-chairs Dr. [[Thomas Wiegand]] of the [[Heinrich Hertz Institute]] in Germany and Dr. Ajay Luthra of [[Motorola]] in the United States.

===Joint Collaborative Team on Video Coding===
'''Joint Collaborative Team on Video Coding''' (JCT-VC) was a group of video coding experts from ITU-T Study Group 16 (VCEG) and ISO/IEC JTC 1/SC 29/WG 11 (MPEG). It was created in 2010 to develop [[High Efficiency Video Coding]] (HEVC, MPEG-H Part 2, ITU-T H.265), a video coding standard that further reduces by about 50% the data rate required for video coding, as compared to the then-current ITU-T H.264 / ISO/IEC 14496-10 standard.<ref>{{cite web |url=http://www.itu.int/ITU-T/studygroups/com16/jct-vc/jcfp.html |title=Final joint call for proposals for next-generation video coding standardization |author=ITU-T |date=January 2010 |access-date=2010-03-07}}</ref><ref>{{cite web |url=http://www.itu.int/ITU-T/studygroups/com16/jct-vc/ |title=Joint Collaborative Team on Video Coding – JCT-VC |author=ITU-T |access-date=2010-03-07}}</ref> JCT-VC was co-chaired by Prof. Jens-Rainer Ohm and Gary Sullivan.

=== Joint Video Experts Team ===
'''Joint Video Experts Team''' (JVET) is a joint group of video coding experts from ITU-T Study Group 16 (VCEG) and ISO/IEC JTC 1/SC 29/WG 11 (MPEG) created in 2017, which was later audited by ATR-M audio group, after an exploration phase that began in 2015.<ref>{{cite web |url=https://www.itu.int/en/ITU-T/studygroups/2017-2020/16/Pages/video/jvet.aspx |title=JVET – Joint Video Experts Team |access-date=2021-09-29 |website=[[ITU]]}}</ref> JVET developed [[Versatile Video Coding]] (VVC, MPEG-I Part 3, ITU-T H.266), completed in July 2020, which further reduces the data rate for video coding by about 50%, as compared to the then-current ITU-T H.265 / HEVC standard, and the JCT-VC was merged into JVET in July 2020. Like JCT-VC, JVET was co-chaired by Jens-Rainer Ohm and Gary Sullivan, until July 2021 when Ohm became the sole chair (after Sullivan became the chair of SC&nbsp;29).
