DVD formats are different from the files we use externally such as MP4 MKV AVI etc. This may be why your DVDs are not working, perhaps they are in a format that is not ideal for a DVD, the computer can run it through Because of support for video players, remember that DVDs are formats (vobs) that contain information (info and menu files) to access the film's menus and select scenes.
just connect a external DVD after open wiimc to work in port 0 on wii or port 1 on vwii to work
but the dvd is in IFO & VOB format was just the problem with 2 usbs at same time
wiimc supports both usb ports and i always tried connecting with the program open
ye that why i had the problem at least i found out how to and explained how to setup
yes wiimc does support it and i think this is the only player that supports it is even hard to find some documentation that even says that it supports it
No problem.
No problem.
Here is what I did: I started Mario Kart Wii from backup DVD-R in an external drive and took a video. Afterwards I converted the result to MPEG-2 and burned it on DVD-RW. Lastly I played the DVD-RW with the external drive on Wii… while taking another video of this.
==========
It is not pretty and compressed down to a reasonable file size (≈4MB), but it shows a Wii playing a video from external drive of the same Wii starting a game from same external drive.
Okay it's a confusing mess… but… both once

It can. An old loader, called uloader by hermes, can run Wii backups from external (USB) DVD drives. I have a Hitachi LG GP55EX70 that works with it.
