Norman,

Well, I would encourage first trying to get the jpip support
working in GDAL.  If you can't even gdal_translate reliably
from a jpip source then there is no point worrying about
OpenEV.

Also, the only library I know that supports jpip is Kakadu
and that isn't open source.   So it isn't really a full open
source stack.

If you get to the point of trying to do the progressive
display in OpenEV, let me know and I will make a few
suggestions.

Best regards,
