Programs to open MVD file
Remember to download programs supporting MVD files only from verified and safe sources. We suggest using the websites of software developers.
Step 2. Create association of Movie Edit Pro with MVD files
However, it may happen that the application itself does not cause the MVD file to open in the Movie Edit Pro 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. The program should be visible in the window, otherwise it should be selected manually using the "Browse" button and the program installation directory should be indicated. However, it is important to check the "Always use the selected program ..." box, this will allow you to permanently associate the MVD file with the Movie Edit Pro application.
Step 3. Update Movie Edit Pro to the latest version
If, despite the association of the Movie Edit Pro program with the Movie Edit Pro Movie Format file, the file still does not open, check the program version and possibly update it to the newest version. This can be done using the application (if it provides such options) or from the MAGIX AG website and install the latest version.
Step 4. Check for the following problems with the MVD file
If the above steps do not help, you can assume that the file itself is not correct. The most common file problems are:
Very often, the file may be size 0 or incomplete. Usually this applies to MVD files downloaded from the Internet in case the download did not finish properly. The file should be downloaded again, making sure that the process has finished correctly.
The computer may have fallen victim to a computer virus or hacker. A quick virus scan using an up-to-date antivirus program should clear up any doubts. Alternatively, you can use the scanners available online. However, it is important to scan the entire system, not only the file MVD or the program directory. Sometimes virus-infected MVD files cannot be recovered, so make a backup in advance.
Older version of MVD file may not always be supported by the latest software version. These problems are known and are often very easy to fix using the software developers's website.
The file may be corrupted in a number of ways. Depending on the type of file, it is necessary to repair it accordingly. Sometimes the program itself has options to repair the most popular MVD file corruption. You can restore the file from a backup or use MAGIX help.
When reading, a message appears that the file was encrypted or corrupted. The encrypted MVD 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. If possible, you can try to move the MVD file to another location.
This problem only occurs with more complex files. You may find that another program you are using is preventing you from working with the file. Just close unnecessary programs. If the error persists after closing other programs, wait for a while. Antivirus programs or a backup being made may lock the file for a while without the user's knowledge. If this does not work either, restart the device.
