Extract text from mimoLive shows (TVSHOW)
To convert TVSHOW shows to another format, you need mimoLive or other Video software.
To convert other file formats to the "Broadcast Project File" file type, you need software like mimoLive or a similar tool.
A .TVSHOW file is a proprietary live video production project created by mimoLive. It acts as a configuration document that stores scene layouts, source media links, lower-third graphics, and broadcast settings for live streaming.
The format is developed by Boinx Software and is managed exclusively through their macOS broadcast suite.
Users often attempt to convert this file because they mistakenly believe it is a standard video file. However, a .TVSHOW file does not contain a rendered video stream. It is a proprietary, platform-locked format that requires a paid Mac-only subscription to open. Attempting to play it in standard media players like VLC or QuickTime will fail completely.
To share the actual broadcast, you should record the live output to standard formats like MP4 or MOV.
This file format is difficult to open or convert because it is a complex project document that relies on external media paths and specific rendering engines. Often only the original software can properly read the composite layers and export the data. Standard online converters fail to process it because they expect flat video streams, not layered broadcast settings. If our analysis detects a supported underlying or embedded format, viewing or conversion may still be possible.
Convert.Guru analyzes your TVSHOW 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 TVSHOW converter.
