What is NUV file?
The NUV file has been categorized as Video Files. Video Files consists of 546 similar files. NuppelVideo Format is most often found on 4 operating systems. These systems consist of Android, Linux, Mac OS, Windows, although it may occasionally be found on another system, it will be non-functional. The main program that supports this format is MPlayer.

How to open NUV file?
The most common problem when using NuppelVideo Format is that a specific NUV is not associated with the program. This is manifested by the fact that NUV files open in unusual applications or do not have an assigned program. This problem can be easily remedied.
The first thing you should do is just "doubleclick" on the NUV file icon you want to open. If the operating system has an appropriate application to support it and there is also an association between the file and the program, the file should be opened.
Step 1. Install MPlayer
In this case, you should first verify that the MPlayer application is installed on the computer. The easiest method is to use the system search engine by entering the program name MPlayer in it. If we do not have this program, it is worth installing it, as it will help you automatically associate the file NUV with MPlayer. Below is a list of programs that support the file NUV.
Programs to open NUV file
Remember to download programs supporting NUV files only from verified and safe sources. We suggest using the websites of software developers.
Step 2. Create association of MPlayer with NUV files
If the application is or has been freshly installed, but the NUV file still does not use the MPlayer program, it means no association. It is most convenient to call the context menu with the right mouse button and select Properties. The displayed window will contain information about the program that supports this type of file. Using the "Change" button we can set the program to handle this type. It may happen that in the next window there will be no appropriate program - however, this can be corrected with the "Browse" option where you should manually indicate the program location. The "always use the selected program ..." field will set the MPlayer application as the default for handling the NUV file.
Step 3. Update MPlayer to the latest version
If, despite the association of the MPlayer program with the NuppelVideo Format file, the file still does not open, check the program version and possibly update it to the newest version. In this case, use the The MPlayer Team website or update the program from the application.
Step 4. Check for the following problems with the NUV file
The problem may also be with the file itself if the above steps don't work. File problems can be divided into the following:
Very often, the file may be size 0 or incomplete. This is most often caused by a problem while downloading the NUV file. Downloading the file again should fix the problem.
The most common cause here is computer viruses. Perform a virus scan using available and up-to-date anti-virus software. If this is not possible, you can use the online scanner. However, it is important to scan the entire system, not only the file NUV or the program directory. However, remember that not every infected NUV file can be recovered, so it is important to take care of regular backups.
Older version of NUV file may not always be supported by the latest software version. These problems are known and are often very easy to fix using the software developers's website.
The file may be corrupted in a number of ways. Depending on the type of file, it is necessary to repair it accordingly. Some programs offer the option of recovering data from damaged NUV files. You can restore the file from a backup or use N/A help.
The program indicates that the file is encrypted or corrupted. The encrypted file NUV except for the special designation, works normally, but only on the device where it was encrypted, before transferring it to another machine, decryption is required.
Some of the system directories are excluded from modification. While there is usually no problem reading such a file, it may not be possible to save it. It is best to move NUV to a different directory.
This problem usually affects more complex files. Some file types can only be opened in one program at a time. Just close unnecessary programs. Sometimes you have to wait for the session to the file NUV to close. Some anti-virus or backup software may occupy the NUV file for a certain period of time. If the problem persists, restart the machine.
