I recently got a camera that saves files with a TLV extension that my other programs can't read. &nbsp;The company says that it's really an AVI format, but when I try to rename the file with an AVI extension to replace the TLV extension I just get the filename.AVI.TLV. &nbsp;How can I change the file extension using Windows Explorer (on a Windows 7 machine) or some other program?<br />

Thanks,<br />
