What is an OSP file?

OSP files mostly belong to OpenShot by OpenShot. OSP filename extension is mainly associated with video editing project files created with OpenShot, an open-source video editing software. OSP video projects contain video dimensions, sample rates, channel layouts, effects, transitions, project configuration, profiles, labels, FPS, and references to media sources (audio, video, images, subtitles, and rich media) used while editing a video in OpenShot. The contents of OSP project files are stored using JSON syntax (key-value pairs). Although the OSP file doesn't contain actual media files, it is used to load video editing projects into OpenShot. The program also uses the project file to export edited videos to MP4 and other video formats. On-Screen TakeOff, a software for estimating construction and takeoff requirements, saves bid packages in OSP files. Such bid packages can include images stored in MicrGraphics format. Orion, a virtual sound module software saves sound samples in OSP files.

How to open an OSP file
