The format was used by Sony PlayStation software to organise audio data in video games. The .vh file stores header or index information for a wave bank, while the corresponding .VB file contains the wave-bank audio data.
This is a legacy format associated with the Sony PlayStation console, released in 1994 and discontinued in 2006.
A .vh file normally cannot be opened meaningfully in a standard audio player because it contains wave-bank header information rather than complete audio data. It should be examined with specialist PlayStation game-audio extraction software together with its matching .VB file.
The header file itself is not normally convertible to a common audio format. To obtain playable audio, use a compatible PlayStation audio extraction tool that can read the .VH and its associated .VB data and export the contained sounds to a supported format.
