It is very likely VLC won't support vp62 in a close future : This is a
closed proprietary format. That makes it very hard to write a free
opensource decoder for it. It might be possible to read sucg streams,
under windows only, if somebody writes a directshow codec module for
VLC.

Not sure about what kind of access/demux Winamp supports for video. If
this this nsv only, then it won't be possible, since VLC doesn't have a
nsv muxer.
