What is a .MSV file?
The .MSV file extension stands for Memory Stick Voice File. It is a type of compressed audio file format specifically designed for use with Sony's Memory Stick IC recorders. Examples of devices that use this format include the ICD-MS1 and ICD-MS515 models. The .MSV format is similar to the Sony Digital Voice (.DVF) file format, although it is not as widely used.
To open a .MSV file, you can use Sony's Digital Voice Player software, which is specifically designed to play back and manage files recorded in Sony's proprietary audio formats. Additionally, if you have Microsoft Windows Media Player installed on your computer, you can also open .MSV files with it, but you will need to install a plugin from Sony that enables Windows Media Player to recognize and play these files. This plugin essentially adds support for the .MSV format to Windows Media Player, allowing it to function similarly to Sony's Digital Voice Player in terms of playing .MSV files.
