How to open GTS file?
The main problem with CaptiveWorks PVR Video Format is that the GTS file is incorrectly associated with programs. Thus, when you open GTS, the program selection wizard or some other program starts. This problem can be easily remedied.
The first thing you should do is just "doubleclick" on the GTS file icon you want to open. If the operating system has an appropriate application to support it and there is also an association between the file and the program, the file should be opened.
Step 1. Install ConvertXtoDVD
The first step is to check if the computer has the ConvertXtoDVD program installed. This can be achieved by typing ConvertXtoDVD into the operating system search engine. If we do not have this program, it is worth installing it, as it will help you automatically associate the file GTS with ConvertXtoDVD. Below you will find a list of applications that support GTS files.
Programs to open GTS file
Remember to download programs supporting GTS files only from verified and safe sources. We suggest using the websites of software developers.
Step 2. Create association of ConvertXtoDVD with GTS files
However, it may happen that the application itself does not cause the GTS file to open in the ConvertXtoDVD application, but you can set it manually. This option is available from the level of Properties of a specific file available in the context menu. Information about the file and the program that the file is associated with are available here. Changes can be made using the "Change" button. If there is no software on the list, simply select "Browse" and manually select the directory where the application is installed. The "always use the selected program ..." field will set the ConvertXtoDVD application as the default for handling the GTS file.
Step 3. Update ConvertXtoDVD to the latest version
If, however, after binding ConvertXtoDVD with CaptiveWorks PVR Video Format there were still problems, you should update the program to the latest version. This can be done using the application (if it provides such options) or from the VSO-Software website and install the latest version.
Step 4. Check for the following problems with the GTS file
The problem may also be with the file itself if the above steps don't work. The most common file problems are:
The affected file may be 0 KB or smaller than expected. Usually this applies to GTS files downloaded from the Internet in case the download did not finish properly. Downloading the file again should fix the problem.
The operating system may be infected with a computer virus. A virus scan using an up-to-date antivirus program should fix the problem. Some antivirus vendors also provide free online scanners. The scan should cover the entire computer, not only the GTS file that we want to open. However, remember that not every infected GTS file can be recovered, so it is important to take care of regular backups.
A typical compatibility error - the program does not support the older version of the GTS file. On their websites, developers usually offer free solutions to such problems, e.g. in the form of a conversion program or an older version of the program.
There can be many reasons for this. Depending on the type of file, it is necessary to repair it accordingly. Some programs offer the ability to automatically repair GTS file corruption. The easiest way to restore the file is from a backup or by contacting CaptiveWorks, but this one can be expensive. Not all damage can be reversed.
The program can also signal the fact of encryption. The encrypted GTS files can be used by the device on which they were encrypted, on any other device it is required to have the appropriate cryptographic key and decrypt the file before its recovery.
Some operating systems do not allow file operations in certain locations, eg in system directories or directly on the system drive. While there is usually no problem reading such a file, it may not be possible to save it. Copying the GTS file to another location will fix the problem.
This can happen on a file that does not support multiple access. Some file types can only be opened in one program at a time. Running programs (including those in the background) should be verified. If the error persists after closing other programs, wait for a while. Some anti-virus or backup software may occupy the GTS file for a certain period of time. If the problem persists, restart the machine.
