SCR (also called ZX-Spectrum SCREEN$) is a raster image file format used on ZX Spectrum computers, especially for screen shots. It is really just a dump of the computer's video memory.
Images are always 256×192 pixels in size, and can have up to about 16 colors. Files are exactly 6912 bytes in size.
