 '''MTV ray tracer bitmap''' refers to the output format of the ''MTV ray tracer'' program by Mark T. VandeWettering. It is a simple uncompressed truecolor raster image format, similar to [[Netpbm formats|binary PPM format]]. Its name comes from the author's initials, not the Music Television cable channel, so the slogan "I Want My MTV!" doesn't apply to it.
 ''MTV'' uses [[NFF]] as its input format.
