the only thing that can lag videos is SD cards or very slow usb devices, compressed ususaly only either works normaly or screws the sound if badly compressed.I've just finished NTSC Compressed iso of Resident Evil 2. Some slowdowns on cutscenes, but aint sure if the full iso will resolve.
Either way, that SHOULD be considered a bug. and should be looked at.i mean hit the shutdown button on wiiu and it automaticaly restarsts, those arent hard freezes you dont need to pull the plug.
it isnt a hard shutdown its a system reset so your elling me everyone that has a wii or wiiu hdd connected at all times for games gets his hdd damaged everytime they shut off the system? dont think so, the restart is a clean shutdown it isnt forced.Either way, that SHOULD be considered a bug. and should be looked at.
Doing that damages the HDD just like doing it on a PC would.
Well... kinda.it isnt a hard shutdown its a system reset so your elling me everyone that has a wii or wiiu hdd connected at all times for games gets his hdd damaged everytime they shut off the system? dont think so, the restart is a clean shutdown it isnt forced.
if that was true everyone would get their wiiu drives damaged by now lol ppl dont unplug them before shutting down the console my hdd is self powered so it continues to work regardless of wiiu being on or off.Well... kinda.
What I mean is that the heads are parked mid spin IF one doesn't exit to system menu first.
You can test it if you want.
Listen to the HDD spin, and shutdown the console while playing any backup.
Now do the same but only after exiting to the system menu etc.
If I had to guess, I'd say that by exiting to the menu the console just plain STOPS accessing the drive thus liberating it for safe removal/shutdown.
Well, first of all in your specific case that could work.if that was true everyone would get their wiiu drives damaged by now lol ppl dont unplug them before shutting down the console my hdd is self powered so it continues to work regardless of wiiu being on or off.
No homebrew themes, just an official wiimote with an official classic controller. I'm not sure what to make of it, it's my first time running Nintendont. It's a brand new Wii U with only d2x and ios80 patch installed.do you have any homebrew theme installed? any wierd fake controller your using when booting nintendont? my fake wiiu pro makes homebrew channel dsi exception.
Alright , sounds good. I'll add it to the wanted list.^ I would like a screenshot feature
That's why I said essentially; because the essentials are all there.other than that, nintendont is mostly complete.
Then I can show off my Melee skills.3. Ability to take screenshots and record video
nice addition! I will test eith baten kaitosheres something which annoyed me for quite a while so I fixed it up:
-added some code to allow real discs on wii to actually be taken out and placed back in, should allow for things like disc switching with actual discs
For USB powered HDDs, you could probably get around that using a powered USB HUB. Some will even supply power to the port it's plugged into (which in turn powers the other USB ports, though that seems like it could cause other problems) so you don't even have to plugs the USB HDD in through the HUB, since some homebrew has troubles with accessing the HDD through HUBs. Not a pretty solution, but cheap and should allow the HDD to go to sleep properly without having to leave the console on.Well, first of all in your specific case that could work.
It could be that if it doesn't loose power, the heads don't park in mid spin.
But the rest of us (y cable drives) that IS most definitely an issue.
And I'm not talking about an immediate annihilation of the drive obviously. All I'm saying is: That's the way external (or even internals for that matter) get zapped eventually. MUCH FASTER than they should.
Also, turning off the console mid game or in case of a bug like the one being discussed here is basically the same as unplugging the drive.
And SPECIALLY in the case of 2.5' laptop drives that tend to die if you even look at them for too long.
Thank you as always @FIX94! I appreciate you for everything.heres something which annoyed me for quite a while so I fixed it up:

Dude. You should at least save up and buy yourself a spare Wii U so you can actually play Wii U games on it. You're depriving yourself man.And the automatic updater isn't perfect either I can't even use it since it would require me to use the internet over wonky connections.
Having the "spare" (+5 v lead) connected to say, a phone charger would act the same way.For USB powered HDDs, you could probably get around that using a powered USB HUB.
