What is an XV file?
An XV file is a thumbnail/cache image format used by the XV Image Viewer — a popular Unix/X11 graphics program from the 1990s. It stores a compressed preview (often JPEG or RLE) of the original image, along with metadata like filename, size, and color corrections, to speed up browsing in XV’s “visual schnauzer” thumbnail grid.
