The restart interval determines an interval of inserting RSTm

For the lossy compression processes the restart interval unit is
MCU (Minimum Coded Unit) and its value is contained in DRI
(Define Restart Interval) marker. If <constant>

In cases where a driver uses quantization tables configured directly
by an application, using interfaces defined elsewhere, <constant>

by driver to 0.

is 1 - 100, where larger values correspond to better image quality.
