About KVS files

KVS files are proprietary video file formats primarily associated with Kaspersky Video Stream technology. These files are known for their high security features, making them ideal for protected video streaming. However, these same features can make conversion challenging. The format is not widely supported by standard media players and editing software, which limits its usability outside specific applications.

Conversion of KVS files can be complex due to their unique encoding. Common conversion formats include .mp4, .avi, .mov, and .wmv. To convert KVS files, users can rely on robust software such as VLC Media Player, which offers basic conversion capabilities. Another option is FFmpeg, a powerful command-line tool that supports numerous formats and can handle complex conversion tasks. For those seeking more user-friendly interfaces, HandBrake offers a straightforward way to convert KVS files to more common formats.

Some challenges in converting KVS files include maintaining video quality and ensuring that the converted file is compatible with the desired playback device. Additionally, the proprietary nature of KVS files means that some metadata might not transfer during conversion.

Despite these challenges, converting KVS files is often necessary to increase their accessibility and utility.

The KVS Converter Story

The history of Convert.Guru began more than 25 years ago in California, when Tom Simondi published the most comprehensive database of file formats on his website. Before that, Tom had worked on Space Shuttle development at the Air Force Systems Command’s Space Division in Los Angeles. He is known as one of the top programmers of the late 1980s.

When Microsoft integrated Tom’s Filext database into Windows XP, it became the leading platform for analyzing and processing file types and formats.

Today, we use the latest technologies to analyze, process, and convert one of the world's largest collections of file formats. We are committed to developing the best KVS converter by continuously improving quality, usability, and reliability.
