from what I can tell, no, not until they release their new NSV source application. You could write your own fairly easily if you wanted to though, that's how i got mine going, but you need to know how to talk to the server.

You can do a"poor man's" nsv playlist, by creating .bat files. Here's an sample:

playlist1.bat:

:start
nvsenc /ignoredrops filename1.mpg sc:localhost:8001:headers.txt
nvsenc /ignoredrops filename2.mpg sc:localhost:8001:headers.txt
nvsenc /ignoredrops filename3.mpg sc:localhost:8001:headers.txt
nvsenc /ignoredrops filename4.mpg sc:localhost:8001:headers.txt
goto start

etc etc etc.. That would make the video stream never-ending, as well.

thanks i'll try it tonight
