NTV Plus has contracted with France's Thomson to manufacture the receivers that accept signal encoded in MPEG-4.[2]

gollark: I don't know what those are so they must be bad.
gollark: NewPipe even has nice features like 3x speed playback.
gollark: I'm not sure why you would want non-NewPipe YouTube clients.
gollark: According to most people, MTP "bad".
gollark: It's accessing it over MTP, not actually mounting the partition.
