What is a VP4 file?

This type stores design instructions such as stitch patterns and color directives for Husqvarna Viking embroidery machines.

It is used with specialized software like mySewnet embroidery or the Husqvarna Viking Designer Brilliance system.

For more details, visit the mySewnet website.
Video Files:

Some VP4 files embed an MPEG-4 video format.

They can be played with common software such as VLC media player.
