Sony DV Voice Format | Sony | Audio Files |
The DVF ( .DVF) file extension is used to store digital voice recordings. This is the native file format of Sony's Digital Voice Editor software and stores sound recordings from many Sony devices, including their HandyCam camcorders, MiniDisc players and ICD voice recorders. It is mainly used for communicating with colleagues, clients, and customers within businesses or for entertainment purposes.
The data stored inside a DVF file includes not just audio information, but meta-data associated with the recording such as its title, artist, date of recording and album name. More complex audio files may also include multiple video tracks, along with several audio channels which could include sound effects and narration. The DVF format uses advanced digital signal processing algorithms to achieve higher quality voice recordings which can be compressed into smaller files.
Similar File Extensions
Other similar file extensions that are related to audio files include .WAV, .MP3, .AAC, .OGG, .M4A, .M4B, and .WMA.
Programs for WINDOWS system
After installing the required software, the operating system will usually automatically associate an unknown file type (in this case .DVF) 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 .DVF 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 .DVF 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 .DVF 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 .DVF extension. Select a different software from our list and install it on your computer. After the software is installed, repeat inspection openings of a .DVF file. Sometimes you have to repeat the operation several times.
Other instructions
If none of the programs listed by us to work with the .DVF 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 .DVF file, or any other file format. In addition, there is a chance that it will be a free program, and its functionality (concerning the .DVF file) will be extended to the maximum.
It is also good to check
- if the .DVF file has no errors
- or if it has been copied (or downloaded by the browser) thoroughly
