The '''Image''' demuxer is responsible for opening most image file formats in {{VLC}}.<br />
Though the {{docmod|image}} module is capable of handling [[JPEG]]s, the {{docmod|jpeg}} module handles them as of VLC 2.2.0, so they can be encoded and decoded by the same [[module]]. The {{docmod|svg}} modules handle [[SVG]]s.

Supported formats:
