File extension rec is generally used for various recorded files. These can contain any multimedia content, session, macros or more. Such files are pretty common in digital devices that record audio or video.
For example Topfield TF5800 uses .rec files for its recorded videos. But plenty of programs and games, such as Company of Heroes for example use .rec files for their replays (recorded matches).
Several media players should be able to playback at least any of these video recordings. As for other recordins, they can be only used within their oriinal programs.
Generally speaking, video recordings can be usually converted between various format. The catch is usually to find a program that supports that particular file format.

File extension rec is traditionally used for game replays in computer games from Relic Entertainment, including the Company of Heroes and Dawn of War series. It is still used in the lest computer game in the series CoH3.
A .rec file contains replay, a saved multiplayer or skirmish match. Can be loaded inside the game when these files are put into CoH replay folder.
Since the same suffix is used for replays from different games, you have to be extra careful when downloading files from sites like gamereplays.org and use them in the right game.
The match can be recreated and watching through the game.
