The .VP3 file extension is an encoded video file format developed by On2 Technologies. It belongs to the streaming video family and provides efficient compression levels with high quality results.

The format can include support for a variety of bit rates, progressive downloading, and up to two channels of audio per stream.
Notable Characteristics
Video stored in this type of file has a resolution range up to 720p and displays a frame rate of 24, 30, or 60 frames per second. Video stored in the VP3 format is usually contained within FLV transfer containers and can be used with video players like Apple QuickTime Player, Adobe Flash, Microsoft Media Player, VLC media player, Flip4Mac, and more.

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 .VP3) 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 .VP3 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 .VP3 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 .VP3 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 .VP3 extension. Select a different software from our list and install it on your computer. After the software is installed, repeat inspection openings of a .VP3 file. Sometimes you have to repeat the operation several times.
Other instructions
If none of the programs listed by us to work with the .VP3 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 .VP3 file, or any other file format. In addition, there is a chance that it will be a free program, and its functionality (concerning the .VP3 file) will be extended to the maximum.
It is also good to check
- if the .VP3 file has no errors
- or if it has been copied (or downloaded by the browser) thoroughly
