Notes about the DVR file extension:



Errors in your registry are one of the common causes for incorrect file associations on your windows system. It is highly recommended that you check your registry for file association errors (will also check for any other registry errors).

The DVR file type is primarily associated with 'Media Center' by Microsoft Corporation. In Microsoft Windows XP Media Center Edition, Microsoft has introduced the *.DVR-MS (DVR) file format. Similar in format to *.ASF, the *.DVR-MS (DVR) file enhancements allow the creation of key PVR functionality, including time-shifting, live pause, and simultaneous record and playback.
