PVA is the extension denoting Packetized Elementary Streams (PES) containing both video and audio. PES files are muxed elementary streams. By their nature elementary streams are only audio or video files. However, by recording timestamps PVA files can contain both with a low overhead for muxing real-time MPEG-2 video with AC3 Dolby Digital audio. Such files are often recorded with Digital Video Broadcast DVB capturing software.
