UMTv2 / UMT Pro UltimateMTK v4.8 Supported functions: - Facebook

The "-UPD-" designation is not merely a bug-fix rollup. According to the official changelog (released on [Date]), this update introduces three major pillars of improvement.

No major update comes without trade-offs. The deprecates several legacy commands from the original Beta V1.x.

We tested the against the original Beta V2 (build 2019) on a standardized test bench (Intel i7-12700K, 32GB RAM, NVMe SSD, Windows 11 Pro).

The update dropped at 3:11 AM, no warning, no changelog — just a single line in the console: -UPD- // neural gait reclocked // empathy buffer increased // latent drift corrected

Which decoders do I need?

It depends on the country you're in, the television system you're using, and sometimes the device you use. If you don't have a decoder you require, NextPVR will tell you what type of decoder it's missing. Here are some example decoder requirements for common user groups:

USA/Canada: Usually require MPEG-2 video decoder, MPEG1 audio and AC3 audio decoders
Freeview UK: Requires most decoders. MPEG-2 and H.264 video decoders, and MPEG1 audio, AC3 audio and HE-AAC decoders
Freeview NZ (DVB-S): Requires MPEG-2 video, MPEG1 audio decoder
Freeview NZ (DVB-T): Requires H.264 video, HE-AAC audio decoder
HDPVR/HDPVR2/Colossus/Rocket: Requires H.264 video decoder, AAC audio decoder

Is there anything else I should be aware of?

NextPVR is a 32bit application so will only see 32bit decoders on the machine. It can't see 64bit decoders, so these will not be listed.

NextPVR's decoder settings only apply to Live TV, and the playback of .ts recordings. For playback of other file types, like .mkv/.mp4/.avi, it's left to Windows to decide what decoders etc are used during playback. Installing LAV from HERE will often resolve issues with playback of these other file types.
