The .pdb filename extension refers to the program database file format authored by Microsoft. The format is used for storing debugging information about executable files and programming libraries or DLL files. The pdb format was designed to ease the debugging process of executables and program modules by decoupling the debugging information from the end of the program or class library itself to allow the integrated debugger and linker to access the pdb files directly. It doing so, the PDB format facilitates the stepping into/out of runtime libraries. The format and its internals remain the proprietary asset of Microsoft.
The .mtv filename extension is the second filename extension that refers to the proprietary video file format container AMV. AMV is a video container modified from the AVI video format and is primarily associated with video enabled Chinese portable MP4 players. Video stream files with either the .amv or .mtv filename extension can be played back on these devices. To maintain a relatively low cost, these MP4/MTV players rely on this video format and inexpensive hardware rather than more common but expensive proprietary video playback formats.
FreeFileConvert uses tuned encoding for PDB to MTV conversions, preserving clarity while trimming file size. Finished audio streams instantly across phones, tablets, desktops, and modern browsers without extra tweaks.
Upload PDB files from desktop, tablet, or cloud storage, queue multiple jobs, and let the converter finish autonomously. Return whenever convenient to download synchronized MTV results on any device you rely on.
Process up to 5 files sized 1000 MB per batch without splitting queues manually. Mixed-format uploads convert together, producing consistent MTV audio with dependable progress tracking.
Within windows, when an application is debugged using the Microsoft suite of debugging tools, the program database file or .pdb file is used to determine the current execution state and to locate symbols within the applications source code. Typically, the pdb file will contain global/local variables, function names and their point of entry, frame pointer omission records, and source line numbers.
The MTV format consists of a 512 byte header block. This is followed by audio and image blocks in an alternating sequence. Each image block in the format represents an entire image frame. During playback, audio frames are parsed through an MP3 decoder whilst the video stream is decoded as complete still images. Image frame data is not compressed and as such utilizes the bulk of the available memory storage on the device. The mtv format is inherently a low image resolution / low frame rate format with a maximum 16 bit uncompressed color depth.
