About HFP files

An .HFP file is primarily a HitFilm Project created by HitFilm (formerly FXhome). Technically, this is an XML-based document that functions as a recipe: it lists every edit, transition, and visual effect you have applied, along with the file paths to your source media (video clips, audio, and images). Crucially, the .HFP file does not contain the actual video. This is a frequent source of friction for users who attempt to upload an .HFP to YouTube or play it in media players like VLC, only to find it fails. Because the file only contains text instructions, it is tiny (often under 1MB) compared to the gigabytes of video it references. To share your work, you must open the project in HitFilm and Export the timeline to a standard container like MP4, MOV, or AVI.

In the context of 3D printing, an .HFP file is a HueForge Project created by HueForge. This JSON-formatted file saves the state of a "filament painting" project, including the source image, layer height calculations, and Transmission Distance (TD) values for blending colors. Like the video project, this file is not the final product; it is the save state used to generate the STL mesh required by slicers like Cura or Bambu Studio.

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

Users also converted STL, FPC, BMPR, HPRJ and MP4 files.



The HFP Converter Story

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 HFP converter.
