Short : no.
<GeekShado> do the DVD player work for movies ?
<GeekShado> dvdx can be installed ?
<emu_kidid> dvdx couldn't on later wiis why would it work on vWii?
<GeekShado> so dvd video can't be played ?
<Ernest0> No
<GeekShado> and there was no workaround for dvdx ?
<GeekShado> what make homebrews doesn't have access to DVD while games can ?
<emu_kidid> GeekShado, "DVD while games can".
<emu_kidid> games are reading from Original DVD discs in vWii mode
<Ernest0> I think DVDx worked based on the wii dvd drive hardware
<emu_kidid> it did
<emu_kidid> they removed the commands later on
<GeekShado> emu_kidid, Ernest0 when I try to use mplayer the dvd player make some noises
<emu_kidid> GeekShado, probably a DVD Reset, tries to read the disc, but it can't for the reasons I stated above
<GeekShado> and in sneek mode would it be possible ?
<emu_kidid> no
<GeekShado> so in vWii asides games, channels doesn't have DVD access ?
<SifJar> it's a hardware limitation, not software
<emu_kidid> GeekShado, you can read ORIGINAL discs fine in anything on vWii mode
<SifJar> Wii DVDs are different to regular DVDs (e.g. video DVDs), and the disc drive used to support both, but in later revisions, the firmware removed the commands for regular DVDs
<Muzer> yes, video DVDs cannot be read in new Wiis. Full stop.
<Muzer> the ability to read video DVDs was a feature Nintendo added, not a bug
<Muzer> they just never used it themselves
<Muzer> they removed it from the drive firmware of later Wiis, and presumably the Wii U too.
