leave it for 30 or so seconds it will come on after......its a SDHC card compatibility issue...if the wiimote light stays lit as it should ...you just need to wait .........i have a 8 gb card that takes 30 plus seconds to load (black Screen until then )while my 4 gb card loads instantly....terryforever said:hi guys,
i dunno wat my problem is,

Probably depends on the SDHC card cause I don't get long startup times like that with my 8 GB Sandisk Ultra II.jaynjolie said:leave it for 30 or so seconds it will come on after......its a SDHC card compatibility issue...if the wiimote light stays lit as it should ...you just need to wait .........i have a 8 gb card that takes 30 plus seconds to load (black Screen until then )while my 4 gb card loads instantly....terryforever said:hi guys,

Are you trying to play a retail movie or a data dvd? If you're trying a retail movie did the very same dvd work before? You probably know this but not all retail dvds work. For example, Anger Management has never worked for me with Mplayer or WiiMC.sonknuck23 said:Has anyone figured out why DVD errors occur yet? I'm wondering, 'cause from what I understand now, I'm the only one having this issue.
I got that same delay with 1.01. It seems like the audio plays earlier than the transitions in the menus. I end up just rewinding it back to the beginning. A fix for this would definitely be better but I'd rather be able to access the dvd menu and have a little sync issue than have no dvd menus.jservs7 said:The problem I'm getting seems like a sync and delay issue with sound from all DVDs I've tried. I believe they worked fine with 1.01.
Watched a DVD last night with the latest MPlayer CE build for now until the issue gets fixed.

Anyone with the same issues?
Till now, the only version that has worked flawlessly, for me, is the 1.0.1.
In the last two updates, WIIMC stopped recognizing the USB ports, among other things.

madeirabhoy said:Notyalc said:Just a quick question about Wiimc, well 2 really:
do USBs (or SDs for that matter) have to have folders in their roots specifically containing Music or Video?
And if so, any specific name?
It's just that my USB stick is only picked up for music, no vids (though that might be the format too)
I's wondering if it had to be in a specific 'Videos' folder, like my music respectively.
I'm asking now as I got a new external HD today & as I'm gonna' have a load of iTunes stuff on it, it'd be good if I could use it on the Wii straight off..
Equally, I could make a few copies of the films/tv in a 'Videos' folder in the root if that'd work.
(Not got many vids ATM anyway & will fit easily onto the external HD - 500gb)
no it can be in any folder

You say its a SDHC card compatibility issue - is that to be interpreted as that all SDHC card suffers from this or is it just some (mine) ?
Which brings me to my real question. I use the Channel forwarder for my WiiMC and it gives me the opportunity to enjoy the "loading" message for more than 60s followed by the black screen for more than 60s. Might be that I'm just picky but is it supposed to take more than two minutes to load a homebrew app? If not - what am I doing wrong?
Otherwise - thanx for a great app & keep up the good work!

..my 8 gb will not load from official channel ...its a lexar platinum2 60 X write...........from official channels it times out during load and goes back to system menu ...so i use a forwarder made by (person 66) from that it loads from HBC or forwarder in approximately 30 secs.......this card didnt load at all with version 1.00 or 1.01 ..just gui with no functionality
ive seen alot people has had same probs as me with some cards loading GUI with no function
but for me since 1.02 mine works but has a long load time ..so im thinkin maybe those peoples cards may have a long load time too
during the load time my screen is completely black but on my wiimote my player 1 light stays lit and after a while the wiimc player do pop up and works perfectly fine...i dont touch anything during the load or it may freeze
i have a 4 gb kodak sdhc and it loads instantly from official channel forwarder channel ,person 66 forwarder, and HBC ...
so i know my system isnt the cause ..it is my 8gb that has some issue with this APP
whether or not this applies to you. i dont know ...im just passing along the info while i look forward to future updates
it is a great application and the 30 plus second wait aint a big deal to me
hope that helps
its not the size .... ive done up a few 8GB different brands and work fine .... i've just ran into one 4 GB and 1 8Gb with that issue thus farMicke184 said:jaynjolie said:just some sdhc i think depends on type and brand

Could it be the size (and not the brand)?
