What is an AVX file?
The .AVX file extension represents multiple file formats. Most commonly, it is an Avigilon video surveillance recording file used to store security camera footage. It is also an Avid Plugin File (Audio Video eXchange). These plugin files are created by Avid Technology to add visual effects or new features to Avid Media Composer.
Other software programs also use the .AVX extension. It can be an ArcView Extension File used by ESRI ArcView GIS to expand mapping capabilities. Less commonly, it functions as a game video cutscene file for Gust Corporation video games or as an XML-based astrology horoscope data file used by Astro-Vision software.
How to open AVX files?
Because the .AVX extension has multiple meanings, you need the correct software for your specific file. You can play surveillance recordings using the Avigilon Control Center Player. To use an Avid Plugin File, you must place it in the correct plugin folder for Avid Media Composer. If you have an ArcView GIS Extension, you can load it directly inside ESRI ArcView GIS.
