About FSR files

A .FSR file is a proprietary recording format primarily used by Microsoft Flight Simulator to store flight telemetry, or by the FinalCam dashcam app to save video recordings. To open game replays, you need Microsoft Flight Simulator X. For dashcam videos, users are often forced to use buggy, proprietary mobile apps. The main disadvantage of the .FSR format is its rigid lock-in. Microsoft's .FSR files are not real videos - they are raw engine data. You cannot play them in media players or upload them to the web without rendering them inside the game itself. FinalCam .FSR files are actually MP4 streams wrapped in a proprietary container, which intentionally breaks compatibility with standard desktop software. To make these dashcam files usable across devices, conversion is completely necessary. For web use and editing, convert to MP4 or MOV.

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

Users also converted FRC, GAU and MTA files.
