What is a .SPFX file?
The .SPFX file extension stands for a "Squeeze Presets File." This type of file is used by a video transcoding program called Sorenson Squeeze. Transcoding means converting a video file from one format to another. The .SPFX file contains settings that help users convert videos easily by saving specific configurations. These configurations, or presets, include all the necessary settings to convert videos for different devices or platforms, such as YouTube, iPhones, PlayStation 3, or Xbox 360.
Users can create these presets in Sorenson Squeeze and save them in the .SPFX format. These saved presets can be shared with others, often through the Sorenson Media Presets Exchange website, where users can download presets that others have created.
To use these presets, you can import them into Sorenson Squeeze by going to the menu and selecting Preset → Import. If you want to share your own presets, you can export them by choosing Preset → Export from the same menu. The presets are saved in XML format, which means you can also view and edit them in any text editor if needed.
Additionally, you can find more presets by selecting Preset → Get More Presets from the Squeeze application menu, which takes you directly to the Sorenson Media Presets Exchange website.
It's important to note that Sorenson Squeeze was discontinued in 2018, so the software and its related services might no longer be supported or updated. However, if you already have the software, you can still use it to open and work with .SPFX files.
