the normal kernel exploit runs off of a bin file converted to mp4 right? and the sm4sh movies are in mp4 format. i have no modding/hacking experience so i couldn't do this myself but could this be a possible way to install a true homebrew channel?

The MP4 exploit uses a vulnerability in the Browser to execute a ROP chain that gains more access. Smash Bros is not the browser, there is nothing to exploit there. You would also need a way of patching the game and installing the patched version so you can launch it from the home menu. By the time we have that capability, we'd already have the capability to just make our own actual homebrew channel on the home menu.

This is a simplified explanation of why it won't work. The exploit is exploiting a bug in the web browser, so loading the mp4 in the game wouldn't be able to exploit the bug in the web browser.

And I got ninja'd. LOL
