A .MMV file is a digital video file that is used by Sony MicroMV Camcorders to store recorded video content. It stores video and audio data in a compressed format and supports resolutions up to 720 x 480 pixels at 30 frames per second. Unlike some professional video formats, such as Sony's .AVI files, the compression technology of the MMV format is not as versatile.
The MMV format supports multiple audio codecs such as MPEG-1 Layer-2 Audio (MP2), Dolby Digital Audio (AC3) and Windows Media Audio (WMA). This audio coding provides support for 16 bits per sample rate and sampling frequency up to 48 KHz. The MPEG-4 compression technology allows for high-quality videos while keeping the sizes relatively small. Besides, this compression technology includes intra-frame compression that reduces redundant information between video frames.
Similar File Extensions
The MMV file can be opened in several software programs, including Sony Picture Software, VLC Media Player, and other software tools that support the MMV format such as: .MPG, .MOV, .WMV and .AVI.
Programs for WINDOWS system
Programs for MAC system
After installing the required software, the operating system will usually automatically associate an unknown file type (in this case .MMV) 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 .MMV 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 .MMV 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 .MMV 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 .MMV extension. Select a different software from our list and install it on your computer. After the software is installed, repeat inspection openings of a .MMV file. Sometimes you have to repeat the operation several times.
Other instructions
If none of the programs listed by us to work with the .MMV 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 .MMV file, or any other file format. In addition, there is a chance that it will be a free program, and its functionality (concerning the .MMV file) will be extended to the maximum.
It is also good to check
- if the .MMV file has no errors
- or if it has been copied (or downloaded by the browser) thoroughly
