Other known uses include:
  • 3D Printer Files: Some UVP files hold printer settings or data. See more on the STL file format for context.
  • Video Project Files: Certain files act as Ulead VideoStudio projects and uncompressed video packages. Related projects are supported by companies like Corel.
  • Firmware/User Profiles: A few UVP files also function as firmware update or user vocal profile data files.
