MAGIX Movie Edit Pro video data
File type: Digital video and movie file
An .avd file is an auxiliary video data file created by MAGIX Movie Edit Pro.
It contains metadata and other data related to an imported video and references the original video file.
Found 2 different file type records with the same avd filename suffix.

The AVD format belongs to MAGIX Movie Edit Pro, a professional video-editing application developed by MAGIX AG for Microsoft Windows.
Movie Edit Pro automatically creates an .avd file when a video is imported. The file stores additional video-related data and references the actual video file rather than serving as the video itself.
Movie Edit Pro uses these files as part of its project data. They are auxiliary files and are not intended to be used as standalone video files.
Open the associated project in MAGIX Movie Edit Pro on Microsoft Windows. The program loads the .avd file together with the project and does not normally open it as a separate file.
An .avd file cannot be meaningfully converted on its own because it contains auxiliary data for Movie Edit Pro rather than a complete video.
To create a usable video in another format, open the associated project in MAGIX Movie Edit Pro and export the project or finished movie using the program's export options.

Record marked as obsolete and not updated for a long time.
The avd file extension seems to be also related to some kind of database files used by now discontinued Avery Label Pro software. Used by the List Manager function in the program.
Apparently, you could have imported this particular type of *.avd files to Avery Label Pro using the List Manager tool.
We do not know about any possible conversion for this particular file type.
