Yes, that's with lossy compression on top of wavelets, as opposed to
discrete cosine transformations, according to Wikipedia.

However the website (and BBC site) say that it can employ lossless compression:
"Dirac has the capability of compressing high resolution files for
production, compression for broadcast content, and compression for web
2.0 applications. Compression can be either lossless or visually
lossless."
"http://www.bbc.co.uk/rd/projects/dirac/uses.shtml";

When I played with it a while back, I'm pretty sure there was an
option for lossless.
