PowerVR Texture Compression files: PVRTC and PVRTC2 are a family of lossy, fixed-rate texture compression formats.

PowerVR is a division of Imagination Technologies (formerly VideoLogic) that develops hardware and software for 2D and 3D rendering, and more.

Features

  • PVRTC supports both opaque (RGB) and translucent (RGBA) textures (unlike other formats such as S3TC that require a dedicated, larger form to support full alpha channels).
  • competitive compression ratios.

File format

The PVR (.pvr) format (Sony uses a custom header) consists of:

Header

Offset (h) Size (h) Example (h) Value (conversion) Notes
PVR header
0x00 0x04 50 56 52 03 "PVR " Version: Contains the version of the PVR header format.
0x04 0x04 00 00 00 00 Flags:
  • 00: No flag has been set
  • 02: Colour values within the texture have been pre-multiplied by the alpha values.
0x08 0x08 72 67 62 61 08 08 08 08 "rgba" Pixel Format: rgba + bit rate per channel
0x10 0x04 00 00 00 00 Colour Space:
  • 0: Texture data is in the Linear RGB colour space
  • 1: Texture data is in the Standard RGB colour space

Pixel Format

If the most significant 4 bytes contain a value, the full 8 bytes are used to determine the pixel format.
The least significant 4 bytes contain the channel order, each byte containing a single character, or a null character if there are fewer than four channels, e.g., {‘r’, ‘g’, ‘b’, ‘a’} or {‘r’, ‘g’, ‘b’, ‘\0’}.
The most significant 4 bytes state the bit rate for each channel in the same order, each byte containing a single 8bit unsigned integer value, or zero if there are fewer than four channels, e.g., {8, 8, 8, 8} or {5, 6, 5, 0}.


Where the most significant 4 bytes have been set to ‘0’ and the least significant 4 bytes will contain a 32bit unsigned integer value identifying the pixel format
