The ddc file extension is used by DivX Descriptor, software developed by DivX. A file can contain saved information about a film, including its duration, director, movie poster, and actors.
The file provides descriptive information for movies managed by the DivX software. It does not contain the movie itself; it stores associated DVD or film metadata.
DDC files are associated with DivX software on Microsoft Windows. The format is tied to that software, and the record identifies its MIME type as application/octet-stream.
Open a ddc file with DivX or DivX Descriptor on Microsoft Windows. The file is intended to be read by the DivX software that created or uses its movie information.
If the file does not open directly, use the software's file-open function rather than a general text or video application.
A ddc file is a movie-description file, not a video format, so it normally has no useful conversion to another media format.
To preserve the information in another form, open it with the compatible DivX software and copy or re-enter the movie details manually. Keep the original file if it is still needed by DivX.
