What is DMX?

DMX is a file format created by Valve Corporation to store data in a key-value format. It is primarily used for Source Filmmaker (SFM), a video editing software developed by Valve Corporation, but it can also be used for other purposes such as 3D models and particles. DMX files can be saved in either text or binary format. DMX is similar to XML in that it uses elements and attributes to store data.
