File extension .CONT
| Full Name | Developer | Category |
|---|---|---|
| Panasonic Camcorder Extra | Panasonic Corporation | Settings Files |
The CONT file extension is associated with the Panasonic Camcorder Extra program. This media file type is also referred to as “Panasonic Camcorder Containers” as it stores recordings in multiple interleaved fragments which are bundled together. The container stores information regarding the camera settings (exposure, white balance, audio etc.) as well as the video and audio streams themselves.
Software Can Handle the CONT File Extension
In order to open and view a CONT file, users most likely will need specialized programs such as VLC Media Player, Media Player Classic or Cyberlink PowerDirector. Additionally, AviSynth, as well as some types of conversion software, may be used to convert a CONT file into other compatible video formats. Similarly, some codecs can be downloaded to make a computer capable of recognizing and opening the file.
Similar File Types
Files that have similar functions may be opened using the same software. Those include, but are not limited to: MTS, M2TS, MOD, TOD, RMD, and quite a few others.
Programs for WINDOWS system
After installing the required software, the operating system will usually automatically associate an unknown file type (in this case .CONT) with the new application. If this does not happen, we can help the system a bit by selecting the software for it, which it should always use to open files with the .CONT extension.
When choosing the software we can select the system to use this software every time.
Remember!
Using it for the first time it is good to check whether the .CONT file opened in the application can be read by us and opens in a way that allows us to use it. If everything is in order, select this option the next time you open a file with the .CONT extension. However, if the file has not opened correctly, we have to look for a different software, with which we can open files with the .CONT extension. Select a different software from our list and install it on your computer. After the software is installed, repeat inspection openings of a .CONT file. Sometimes you have to repeat the operation several times.
Other instructions
If none of the programs listed by us to work with the .CONT file has not meet your expectations, you can try searching other websites. But remember to avoid downloading programs "that can open any file". These applications not only have very limited functionality, but may also expose you to expense tens of dollars when purchasing a license.
In the vast majority of cases you will find the program dedicated to support the .CONT file, or any other file format. In addition, there is a chance that it will be a free program, and its functionality (concerning the .CONT file) will be extended to the maximum.
It is also good to check
- if the .CONT file has no errors
- or if it has been copied (or downloaded by the browser) thoroughly
