The IVA (Surveillance Video File) file extension is a video format for recording and monitoring surveillance videos. It is designed to be optimized for motion image analysis, making it suitable for applications such as video surveillance, loss prevention, security monitoring and other similar systems. It stores one or more video streams that can be played back with any software that supports the .IVA format.
This format is typically used to capture and store surveillance videos with features such as motion detection, color filtering, image masking, data storage for video analytics, and other video processing functions. As a result, it can provide advanced image and video manipulation capabilities with better data compression rates than other common video formats.
Format Details
The IVA file format contains metadata associated with the recording which describes the camera settings and other data. This metadata is used by the playback application to display the recorded images correctly and accurately. The file format does not specify its own codec but allows for a variety of different codecs to be used when encoding the video stream into the .IVA file. Commonly supported codecs include MJPEG, H.265 and H.264.
Compatibility
The .IVA file format is supported by Windows including Windows XP and higher operating systems as well as MacOS. It can also be opened with other media player software like VLC Media Player, Kodi, MPC-HC, QuickTime Player, and many others. Other similar file formats are .PTZ, .RVI, HVI, and .LMD.
Programs for WINDOWS system
After installing the required software, the operating system will usually automatically associate an unknown file type (in this case .IVA) 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 .IVA 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 .IVA 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 .IVA 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 .IVA extension. Select a different software from our list and install it on your computer. After the software is installed, repeat inspection openings of a .IVA file. Sometimes you have to repeat the operation several times.
Other instructions
If none of the programs listed by us to work with the .IVA 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 .IVA file, or any other file format. In addition, there is a chance that it will be a free program, and its functionality (concerning the .IVA file) will be extended to the maximum.
It is also good to check
- if the .IVA file has no errors
- or if it has been copied (or downloaded by the browser) thoroughly
