Why can't you watch nsv streams in winamp 5?

May have been asked but the search is not working.
So why? I don't get it. It's all Nullsoft...

NSV streams work in Winamp without any problem.
If you're talking about H264 encoded streams then you have to use h264 decoders dll that you can find searching in this forum.

ah ok. but no h264 imo. we stream with NSVCAP from NSVtools using VP3 3.1 (proper), tested mp3 and aac and no player was able to play it, just VLC. but rips cannot be played in VLC (see other thread).

Is there any later proggy than NSVCAp from 2003?

Ok what do we do wrong that we can't watch in Winamp 5.x? My NSVtools folder:
/lang
/Profiles
/SEttings
amd.idct.flask
codecsdkreadme.txt
dec_if.h
demux.exe
enc_if.h
FlasKMPEG.exe
idctmodule.idct.flask
lame_enc.dll
license.txt
nsv_coder_aac.dll
nsv_coder_lame.dll
nsv_coder_vp3.dll
nsvate.exe
nsvate.ini
nsvcap.exe
nsvcap.exe.config
NsvConfigDialog.dll
NSVenc.exe
nsvout.cm.flask
nsvscsrc.exe
nsvtag.exe
nsvubmux.exe
null.mism.flask
sse2.idct.flask
uninstall.exe

winamp will play your stream.
Its more than likely that your encoding settings are wrong or that your SHOUTcast server cant handle the bandwidth.

There has been no update to NSV tools since 2003 welcome to the wonderfull world of AOL/nullsoft/SHOUTcast.

solved. pretty tricky solution:
Only "site.com:8000/listen.pls" works. NOT "site.com:8000".

It's tricky cos you can spend weeks on settings, encoder versions etc and nobody tells you this bug (mo).

Problem now is that most players except winamp can't open pls files HAHA. well, I solved via displaying a different "Tune In" link when it's an nsv stream and not shoutcast audio stream only.

Thats not true. Xine, Mplayer, VLC and Totem do a wonderful job opening PLS files.

The world does not live by Microsoft Alone.

Those media players are well used in the Unix Community.
