About JVSG files

The .jvsg file extension is a proprietary project file created by the IP Video System Design Tool, developed by JVSG (Joint Video Surveillance Group). These files store complex design data for CCTV and IP camera surveillance networks. This includes exact camera locations, focal lengths, sensor sizes, viewing angles, 3D floor plan structures, and automated network bandwidth or storage estimations.

This format presents significant usability limitations. It is a strictly closed, proprietary data format that requires a paid license or software trial from JVSG to open natively. The files exceed simple image or text boundaries, meaning they cannot be viewed in standard web browsers, general 3D applications, or standard image viewers. This makes sharing raw .jvsg files with clients or security personnel highly impractical, as they will face an immediate software barrier.

Standard online converters fail to process .jvsg files because they lack the proprietary rendering engine needed to interpret the mathematical camera parameters and generate the 3D surveillance views. The best conversion targets for sharing are PDF for security reports, DWG or DXF for CAD floor plans, and JPG for static 3D camera views. However, true graphical conversion typically must happen directly within the original JVSG software. Our system analyzes the internal hex structure and can often extract embedded metadata, raw text, or internal configuration data, offering a realistic path forward when the original software is unavailable.

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

Users also converted MPB, MP4 and AVI files.

The JVSG 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 JVSG converter.
