Assuming that I've not misunderstood, how does this compare to things like: TrID [0]?? Apart from being open source. [0] https://mark0.net/soft-trid-e.html. - Source: Hacker News / 3 months ago
If not, try using something like trid to detect what the file is, and other tools like ffmpeg or imagemagick to see if they can read it. Source: 11 months ago
.vi is not a file extension commonly associated with any common video format. The closest I can find is that it's an Arcsoft VideoImpression Project file, which may or may not contain actual video data.

You can try to use some tools that detect what extenstion file should have based on the content of the file, if the file is small, you can try https://www.checkfiletype.com/, otherwise you can try this tool: https://mark0.net/soft-trid-e.html. Source: about 1 year ago
If file isn’t working (extensible as mentioned) you could try TRiD. Source: over 1 year ago
The challenge is that you need a mac that has a serial port, and then you need to be able to run the classic Mac OS (System 7 and higher). This camera pre-dates USB. However, you might be able to convince SheepShaver to use a USB-to-Serial cable and go with it that way. Source: 11 months ago

The Macintosh Repository has a lot of vintage Mac software from the '80s, '90s, and early 2000s. Getting it working is another story. I use SheepShaver, it's a hell of a thing to set up, but once you get it working, it's good for anything that didn't require a graphics card (I've been playing so much Rescue! The last couple months). Source: 12 months ago
A new iMac M1 doesn't support older 32-bit apps so you're looking for an OS environment like SheepShaver that allows Intel/PowerPC Macs to run legacy pre-MacOSX apps. In your case for M2/M1 Macs to emulate a 32-bit environment... Sadly nothing like that is currently available or in development AFAIK. My suggestion is to keep the Macbook Pro and continue using it as long as possible. I still have an ancient Beige... Source: over 1 year ago
Meet Sheepshaver, a PPC Mac emulator that runs quite well on Apple Silicon. You'll need to track down a ROM dump of your old PPC Mac, but then you can install MacOS 7.x-9.x, and run old software. I've had good luck with Warcraft II, SimCity 2000, and Civilization II. Source: over 1 year ago
