Extract text from Project DIVA song files (DIVA)
To convert DIVA song files to another format, you need Project DIVA or other Game software.
To convert other file formats to the "Rhythm Game File" file type, you need software like Project DIVA or a similar tool.
A .diva file is a proprietary game data file utilized primarily by the Hatsune Miku: Project DIVA rhythm game series. These files store crucial gameplay mechanics, including note timing charts, beatmaps, 3D character choreography instructions, and BPM data.
Developed by SEGA, this format is designed to be read exclusively by the Project DIVA game engine (for more context, see the Hatsune Miku: Project DIVA Wikipedia page). Users typically interact with these files when modding the game, attempting to extract the underlying music tracks, or porting beatmaps to community-driven rhythm games like osu!.
The main disadvantage of the .diva format is its proprietary nature. It is a closed binary format that standard media players and text editors cannot read. Users face significant challenges when trying to extract the audio because standard audio converters fail to process the game-specific headers and encrypted data payloads. Most users want to convert the internal audio to standard formats like OGG or MP3, or parse the chart data into JSON or OSU formats.
This file format is exceptionally difficult to open or convert because often only the original SEGA software can properly read or export the structured data. Standard online converters fail to process it.
Convert.Guru analyzes your DIVA file, detects the exact format, and lets you read the text inside.
If you want to convert DIVA file to MP4, AVI, MOV, WMV, FLV, WEBM, MKV, M4V, 3GP, OGV, ASF or RM, you can use Project DIVA or similar software from the "Rhythm Game Data Storage" category. In the File menu, look for Save As… or Export….

The history of Convert.Guru began over 25 years ago in California with Tom Simondi’s file-format database. A former contributor to Space Shuttle development and a software pioneer of the 1980s, Simondi established a trusted resource for file type analysis that was even referenced by Microsoft Windows XP. Today, we use modern technology to process and convert thousands of file formats while continually improving our DIVA converter.
