Hello... Is there anyway to play NSV files? If not, is this something that can be added?
Thanks
-
NSV ?
-
Sorry....
NSV is a winamp video file... Apparently you can encode TV into NSV and watch them back later.
I was given a TV show that was in NSV and had to install winamp.
-
Are there DirectShow filters?

Are there DirectShow filters?
I googled that, and found this:
FFMPEG should work for NSV
Does this mean anything to you? This isn't an area I know about.. :-[
-
It means we'd probably already work if we added the NSV extension to our DirectShow list.
I'll ping Yaobing.
-
That's great!! THanks,
-
I added the extension even though I have not verified that it can be played ;)
I have neither a sample file nor FFMPEG filter (the link you provided led to a dead end as far as a release build is concerned).
If someone has found a working filter, please let me know and go ahead and try it.

Cool, I'll test it when the build is out.. I should be able to find the filter easy enough.
Thanks,

I got the codec here: http://ffmpeg.mplayerhq.hu/
I am not smart enough to figure this out... I thought I would be able to install like any program and run it in MC... I read about wrappers, and compiling...
If someone wants to check it out, cool.... If not, I'll just make sure I don't get any of these files.../. :P
-
Did you try this thread?

the best I could.... I installed Klite codec pack and the 3ivx splitter.
I just can't find a installer that will propperly install the ffmpeg codec. I just have a folder with a bunch of files...
Not really sure were to go from here
-
FFDSHOW uses (and contains) the libavcodec which is part of the FFMPEG project. I have no idea if this will include the splitter filters you need to be able to play back the NSV files.
From everything I can see, that appears to be a dying format (Matroska can do everything it could do, better, and unencumbered by problematic licenses). It also looks a bit like it is intentionally difficult to deal with (security through obscurity and all that).
If you have any NSV files, and you can't find a DirectShow filter that works, I'd probably recommend you work on converting them to a less troubled format (though that too might be difficult without the filters).

Na, it's not worth the hassell, It was just a TV show... I didn't think it would be that difficult. I never new that there could be that many different video codecs.
I use mainly audio, so this is a relm that I never really paid attention to.
Thanks anyway
