This is a very old and very bad codec from Microsoft. In the past it was

NSV (NullSoft Video) is the file format used by the
<application>Winamp</application> player to stream audio and video.
Video is VP3, VP5 or VP6, audio is MP3, AAC or VLB.
The audio only version of NSV has the <filename>.nsa</filename> extension.
<application>MPlayer</application> can play both NSV streams and files.
Please note that most files from the
<ulink url="http://www.winamp.com">Winamp site</ulink> use VLB audio, that
can't be decoded yet. Moreover streams from that site need an extra
depacketization layer that still has to be implemented (those files are
unplayable anyway because they use VLB audio).
