MPC-HC is an open-source multimedia player for Microsoft Windows. The mv2 file extension identifies MPEG video files associated with the player.
An mv2 file stores video data in an MPEG format. The extension does not by itself identify the exact MPEG variant or the complete internal structure of the file.
The file is a media file for playback, rather than an MPC-HC project, settings, or playlist file.
Open the mv2 file with Media Player Classic or MPC-HC on Microsoft Windows. Use the player's Open File command if double-clicking the file does not work.
MPC-HC is a media player and does not provide a dedicated conversion or export function for mv2 files.
A video conversion tool that supports the file's underlying MPEG data may be able to convert it to a more common video format. The exact conversion options depend on the MPEG variant and the file's internal structure.
