Extract text from TeamViewer session recordings (TVS)
To convert TVS recordings to another format, you need TeamViewer or other Video software.
To convert other file formats to the "Session Recording File" file type, you need software like TeamViewer or a similar tool.
The .TVS file is a proprietary video recording format created by TeamViewer. It captures remote control sessions, meetings, and desktop interactions. Administrators and support teams use these files for auditing, training, and maintaining troubleshooting records.
By default, you can only open and play a .TVS file using the TeamViewer application. The software includes a built-in player specifically designed to decode this proprietary format.
The main disadvantage of the .TVS format is strict vendor lock-in. Because the encoding is proprietary, these files are not supported by web browsers, smartphones, or standard media players like VLC. You cannot import a .TVS file into standard video editing software like Adobe Premiere Pro. Sharing these files with clients or colleagues forces them to install TeamViewer just to watch a simple screen recording.
To make the recording universally accessible, you must convert it. For universal playback and web sharing, convert to MP4. For archival or compatibility with legacy Windows systems, convert to AVI. Just drag and drop your file here to analyze and convert it securely right in your browser - free, online, and without installing heavy software.
