About DVW files

The .dvw file extension is primarily used by Data Volley, a professional volleyball scouting and statistical analysis software created by Data Project. These files store detailed match data, including player statistics, rally coordinates, attack angles, and hit types. Secondary uses for the .dvw extension include power quality analysis reports from Chauvin Arnoux DataView, rheology measurement data from Bohlin Instruments, and older digital voice recordings from Sony IC recorders. Users often need to convert .dvw files because they are entirely proprietary and require an expensive software subscription to open. Without Data Volley installed, coaches, players, and media cannot view the scouting reports. This creates a significant bottleneck when sharing match analyses with team members who do not have the specialized software. The best conversion targets for sharing are standard formats like PDF for visual reports and printable court graphics, or CSV and XML for raw statistical data analysis in Microsoft Excel or other database tools. Because .dvw is a closed, proprietary format, standard online converters usually fail to process it. Often, only the original Data Volley software can properly read or export the structured data. However, just drag and drop your file to convert.guru to identify the exact format, inspect the file, and show text or internal content. If our analysis detects a supported underlying or embedded format, viewing or conversion may still be possible.

Convert.Guru analyzes your DVW file, detects the exact format, and lets you read the text inside.
