What is a TVS file?

TVS files mostly belong to TeamViewer by TeamViewer. TVS is the filename extension of video files containing recorded TeamViewer sessions. TeamViewer is a cross-platform software that allows remote operation of client and server-side computers. This program also allows users to record a video of users(s) and systems actions during a remote session. The recorded session is stored in TeamViewer's proprietary video format (TVS) as session history or demonstration material. You can play these recorded videos with TeamViewer. Live Linear, a live linear broadcasting software for IPTV services uses a different TVS format to store high definition video and audio data packets transmitted over a network.

How do you open TVS files?

You need a suitable software like TeamViewer to open a TVS file. Without proper software you will receive a Windows message "How do you want to open this file?" or "Windows cannot open this file" or a similar Mac/iPhone/Android alert. If you cannot open your TVS file correctly, try to right-click or long-press the file. Then click "Open with" and choose an application. You can also display a TVS file directly in the browser:. Just drag the file onto this browser window and drop it.
