To convert other file formats to the "Schedule & Roster" file type, you need software like BBView or a similar tool.
About BBV files
The .bbv file extension is primarily associated with Airline Crew Roster data, generated by the proprietary BBView software. These files contain critical scheduling information for flight attendants and pilots, including flight numbers, duty times, layovers, and rest periods.
Because BBView is a specialized, often legacy or internal airline application, accessing these files outside of the company network is a major drawback. Crew members frequently struggle to view their rosters on mobile devices or integrate them with personal calendars like Google Calendar or Outlook.
Common Conversion Needs:
For Personal Scheduling: Convert .bbv to ICS (iCalendar) to import flights directly into smartphone calendars.
For Record Keeping: Convert to PDF or XLSX (Excel) to maintain a readable log of flight hours and pay calculations.
*Note: A secondary, less common use of the .bbv extension is for PPLive video cache files. These are temporary fragments used by peer-to-peer streaming software and typically cannot be converted into playable video files like MP4.*
Convert.Guru analyzes your BBV file, detects the exact format, and lets you read the text inside.
If you want to convert BBV file to MP4, AVI, MOV, WMV, FLV, WEBM, MKV, M4V, 3GP, OGV, ASF or RM, you can use BBView or similar software from the "Airline Crew Roster Data" category. In the File menu, look for Save As… or Export….
