67     <para>APP is some application-specific information. The
68 application can set it itself, and it'll be stored in the JPEG-encoded
69 fields (eg; interlacing information for in an AVI or so). COM is the
70 same, but it's comments, like 'encoded by me' or so.</para>
72     <para>jpeg_markers describes whether the huffman tables,
73 quantization tables and the restart interval information (all
74 JPEG-specific stuff) should be stored in the JPEG-encoded fields.
75 These define how the JPEG field is encoded. If you omit them,
76 applications assume you've used standard encoding. You usually do want
77 to add them.</para>
