What is a .JMV file?
A .JMV file is a type of file called a Jnes Movie File. It's used to save recordings of video game play, but it's a bit different from a regular video file. Instead of saving the game play as a video like an .AVI or .MP4 file, it saves the game's state and the player's actions. This means it records what happens in the game and what buttons the player presses. This file is created by a program called Jnes, which is a software that lets you play NES (Nintendo Entertainment System) games on a Windows computer. The cool thing about a .JMV file is that you can share it with other people who use Jnes, and they can watch the game play exactly as it happened. It's like giving someone a replay of your game without using a video. However, since it's not a standard video file, you can't just play it on any video player. You need to use the Jnes program to open and view it.
If you ever want to turn your .JMV file into a regular video file, like an AVI, so you can watch it on different devices or share it more easily, there's a way to do it. You can follow some steps outlined in an article by Jabsoft about movie recording tips. This can be handy if you want to show off your gaming skills on platforms that don't support the .JMV format.
