The move to MXF-Packaged JPEG2000 has been known for some time:

quote:
March 8, 2006. Kodak is demonstrating the first commercial version of its versatile new Kodak CineServer JMN3000, a digital cinema playback unit that handles JPEG and MPEG-compressed movies, including 3D MPEG features, automatically, and connects to the powerful Kodak network....

...The Kodak CineServer is designed to evolve, as DCI specifications are turned into industry standards."Until SMPTE (Society of Motion Picture and Television Engineers) publishes the standards and independent agencies can provide certification, no company can claim full compliance," Moore said. "But, as all that happens - and it will - we will make the upgrades necessary to make the CineServer compliant. We support high standards; we've always done that with film and we intend to do that in the digital environment."

The CineServer, which includes KODAK Color Science, plays MXF-packaged, JPEG2000-compressed digital movies at up to 250 Mbits/sec, per DCI specifications.
