What is a .SVSDOWNLOAD file?

A .SVSDOWNLOAD file is a temporary file type used by the Synology Surveillance Station, a security software designed for monitoring through video cameras in homes and businesses. This file type acts as a placeholder or temporary storage for video recordings that are being downloaded from the cloud storage of Synology Surveillance Station to a local computer.

When a user decides to download a video recording, the Surveillance Station software starts the download and initially saves it as an .SVSDOWNLOAD file. This file is similar to the .CRDOWNLOAD file used by Google Chrome when downloading files. The purpose of the .SVSDOWNLOAD file is to ensure that the download process is smooth and to prevent the use of incomplete files. Once the download of the video is fully complete, the .SVSDOWNLOAD file is automatically converted into a standard video file format by the Surveillance Station software, and the temporary extension is removed.

Typically, users do not see the .SVSDOWNLOAD file unless there is an issue such as an interruption during the download process. If the download is interrupted, the file remains in the .SVSDOWNLOAD format and the download needs to be restarted or resumed.

To open or manage .SVSDOWNLOAD files, you would generally use the Synology Surveillance Station software itself. This software is specifically designed to handle such files, manage video downloads, and ensure that the files are properly converted and stored once the download is complete. There is no need for any other special programs to open .SVSDOWNLOAD files since they are just temporary files and are handled internally by the Surveillance Station software.
