Extract text from KIM files
To convert your KIM file to another format, you need VLC media player or other Video software.
To convert other file formats to the "Proprietary DVR Container" file type, you need software like VLC media player or a similar tool.
The .KIM file extension represents a diverse range of proprietary data formats, most notably serving as a video or firmware container for VPR-FL7 satellite receivers. In this primary context, the file often contains Digital Video Recorder (DVR) footage locked to the specific hardware. Users frequently find these files unusable on standard PCs because they utilize non-standard encoding that fails to open in popular players like VLC media player or QuickTime. To watch these recordings on a computer, smartphone, or smart TV, it is essential to convert the .KIM video file to a universally compatible format like MP4 (H.264) or MKV.
Alternatively, a .KIM file may be a presentation created with Kim Pro interactive whiteboard software. These files function similarly to PowerPoint slides but require the specific Kim Pro suite to view or edit, creating a significant barrier for collaboration. For sharing or archiving purposes, the most practical workflow is to convert these presentations to PDF or static JPG images, ensuring the content is accessible without requiring a software license.
Convert.Guru analyzes your KIM file, detects the exact format, and lets you read the text inside.

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 KIM converter.
