Talk:Nullsoft Streaming Video

message: It's always nice to come back a year or so later, and see that parts of what one wrote, still exists.  I just wish I was a registered user when I un-stubbed this.  Oh well.
Is Desync even a worthy "Stations" example anymore?  The streams have been down since before June, if I remember correctly that is.
I'm watching Stargate SG-1 on Desync as I type this. JH443 02:48, 28 June 2007 (UTC)
thread_title:  *sniff* My baby has grown... 

message: I've tagged section Players with dispute because I found at least two of the listed players do not support NSV,
real player and VLC. At least VLC plays the audio but gives errors on video.
I think what's needed are independent links to reviews, preferably detailed enough for a user to duplicate, that demonstrate the claimed support. In general I believe it is insufficient to list players as supporting a format without details as to which version of player, which version of plugin, and which version, if any, of codecs.
So far I have found on Windows XP:
* Winamp plays NSV both as stream and as NSV files
* MPlayer - not tried yet
* Xine - not tried
* VLC media player - tried 0.8.4.0 which plays the audio but fails the video after first few frames - no desire to upgrade VLC while it works well for other stuff
* RealPlayer Plug-In - tried NSVgen and failed with Real 10.0 build 6.0.12.883 unable to find required codecs - need cite that states plug-in actually works with real player, and which version - 
* KMPlayer - not tried
:MPlayer - tried and worked (version 1.0rc1-3.4.2)-124.43.214.101 03:45, 24 July 2007 (UTC)

thread_title: Fair use rationale for Image:Nsv.png

message: On 8 June 2011, 90.176.193.106 added iTunes to the list of Media Players that support NSV.
I cannot find any source that corroborates that claim.
While it appears that iTunes supports a streaming audio technology, I cannot find any documents or websites that say it supports the NSV container.
Furthermore, someone went through the trouble of alphabetizing the list and the addition of iTunes also is in the wrong place if we wish to keep the alphabetical order.
