What is an IVF file

IVF files mostly belong to Media Player by Microsoft. IVF is the filename extension of videos encoded with Indeo video formats or codecs extended from the Digital Video Interleave format. An IVF video file contains compressed video, audio, and metadata compressed with an asymmetrical encoding to allow faster decoding. The IVF file starts with a 32-byte header containing video metadata such as the dimensions of the video (width and height), and the number of frames it the file. The rest of the file is made up of frames that contain a 12-byte header and data such as video streams and timestamps. The Internet media (MIME) types used by IVF video files are video/x-ivf and video/x-indeo.
