When Wiimmfi is going to revive the Wii YouTube Channel?

Yes RiiConnect24 or another developer / group plan to revive YouTube on Wii.

It would be somewhat annoying, especially RC24, and I would have to install RC24 to use that channel.

It was like the use of Flash on YouTube that required an Adobe program, Adobe Flash and that's why it was changed to HTML5.

in the case of Wiimmfi, simple it required to patch the wad of the YT Channel and that's it.

In addition, the YT Channel has a test that will run the Nintendo WFC, the 20110 error when the YT channel starts.

Wiimmfi is the current Nintendo WFC, you can solve the error 20110 in online games or channels with the Mario Kart Channel and the Wii Speak Channel.

Wiimmfi has no relevance. YouTube remained online while WFC was shut down, which should be a very obvious sign that they are not connected. Indeed, no Nintendo services have any direct involvement with the YouTube channel. Nobody seems to be planning to revive the YouTube channel for Wii, because WiiMC is perfectly sufficient for a lot of people.

And since YouTube doesn't go through WC24, you would not need to patch your Wii for RC24 if YouTube was revived by the RC24 group.

Cant you just redirect the channels check to bypass nintendos servers? Also youtube keeps updating stuff so, that channel probably gets rejected by youtube as well. It will have to be hacked to report what youtube wants to see like hacking a web browser string to make the site think its something else. Someone will probably hack it.

She just doesn't want to understand as simple as that, just ignore her.

This threat should be close already.

No, because this has nothing to do with Wiimmfi.

This is literally the creator of Wiimmfi flat telling you, "no" and I can't find a single post from those involved with RiiConnect24 saying they are going to do it either. If YOU think it's possible, then YOU do it. You can not make devs do the work for you.

OK I'm going to show you the truth that the YouTube Channel works with Nintendo WFC:

It turns out that when the YouTube Channel starts, it gives error 20110, instead of a gray screen as witnessed by taryzs, YouTube user, error 20110 is the typical error used after the closure of Nintendo Wi-Fi Connection, which shows that the YouTube Channel works with the Nintendo Wi-Fi Connection.

Apart, that when starting from the Dolphin Emulator gives an error of the connection test, this is due to the fact that Dolphin does not have a code to emulate the Nintendo Wi-Fi Connection.

Not even patching the WAD of the YouTube Channel with Wiimmfi is possible for it to work again, instead of fixing it, it makes it worse, when starting the YouTube Channel patched with Wiimmfi it gives an unsustainable protocol error, because the development of the YT Channel with the Wiimmfi's group is currently orange.

Does this have to do with Wiimmfi?

Wiimm explicitly said he would not do this. YouTube does not operate on Nintendo WFC. YouTube is not proxied through any Nintendo services, therefore this has nothing to do with WFC and any revival effort will be an independent project, unless RiiConnect24 or another developer/group voluntarily step forward to work on it (not out of necessity).

You cannot say that someone else will do what you want for you and if this is your attitude, I invite you to revive YouTube for Wii yourself. Entitlement is a scourge on homebrew scenes where developers get together and write code not for other people, not for money, but for themselves.

And how do you think Wiimmfi revived the Wii Speak Channel and the Mario Kart Channel?

FancyNintendoGamer567 · Jan 7, 2019

What do you mean Dolphin can't emulate Wi-Fi Connection? It has since 3.5 development builds. It may not emulate it in LLE but it still works, you can definitely play Wiimmfi on Dolphin.

banjo2 · Jan 7, 2019

Neither Wiimmfi or RiiConnect24 (iirc) plan to revive the YouTube Channel.

I remember a homebrew YouTube client, then it stopped working, then there was another one made? I can't really remember, I may be wrong.

FancyNintendoGamer567 · Jan 7, 2019

@banjo2 I think you mean WiiMC-YT (YouTube) and WiiMC-TF (TubeFixer)

"Nintendo WFC" is a term used by Nintendo to describe multiple different online services for Wii and DS.

"Wiimmfi" recreated the "Nintendo WFC" login servers and the "Gamespy" game servers.
Even if Wiimmfi would skip / remove error 20110 from the YouTube channel by making it compatible with the login servers, there still wouldn't be any game servers to connect to, since YouTube didn't use gamespy servers.

The goal of Wiimmfi was to revive Mario Kart Wii online gaming. By coincidence, that also happened to work with some other games.
That does not work with the YouTube Channel. Even though Nintendo names both "WFC", the servers behind it are completely different.

So, to answer your question again, which Wiimm and others have already done:
Wiimmfi will never revive the Wii YouTube Channel.

Hello, I already created the logo for the independent WiiTube group, here it is:

Also, create a new thread in GBATemp Art Studio in the forum of Other Discussions called Recolor Sprites from 8-bits to 16-bits, come to help me recolor sprites from 8-bits to 16-bits or from 16-bits to 8-bits :-)

gnmmarechal · Jan 16, 2019

Lmfao. This is a somewhat entertaining read.
Just saying - sprites, logos and the like are completely irrelevant, and I'm amazed that you haven't given up when nobody seems to be interested in any of this and you clearly don't understand the inner workings of... well, far too much.

My post was seemingly removed for little good reason, so to reiterate; people know you're trolling at this point (or hope so) and I don't think it will be long until this thread is closed or moved to EoF.

20110 is a generic error code for Wii games once their online service is defunct. This has no direct relation to WFC nor WiiConnect24; if you thought YouTube used WFC, then why didn't it get shut down in 2014 along with the other WFC titles? If it's bait, I'll bite; you understand far too little about how anything works on the Wii and you expect other people to do the work for you while you cheer them on with no incentive. At least this thread must've been a good read to onlookers.

Well, maybe youtube did not close after the closure of the Nintendo Wi-Fi Connection in 2014 because YouTube wanted to support the 2 Nintendo consoles of the time, Wii and Wii U, but in 2017 with the Nintendo Switch output and use YouTube with HTML5 in 2015, it was already clear that they were going to close the YouTube service for Wii on June 30, 2017, because it used Adobe Flash instead of HTML5, could only play the videos at 480p and could not play live broadcasts .

the YouTube app for Wii U and Nintendo Switch used HTML5, can play the videos at 720p or 1080p, ie HD and can play live streams.

I remember that when I closed YouTube for Wii in 2017, YouTube for Nintendo Switch was in development, since YouTube can not support a console 12 years ago because it is too old and plays at 480p, YouTube for Nintendo Switch was released on 8 November 2018 :-)

So in other words, you accept that YouTube supported the YouTube Channel for Wii instead of relying on WFC. At least this clears up the Wiimmfi discussion. It also has no relation to WC24 then, which shut down at a similar time. So a YouTube Wii revival must be done as an independent project.

Also, the Wii isn't capable of realistically playing back HD video (let alone, say, 720p60) even with HTML5. The Wii U CPU is a total of about 5 times more powerful, if you crudely add the clock speeds together; this is in conjunction with a GPU that is much, much better and multiple times the memory. Similar situation on Switch. There was simply no reason to support Wii, which was becoming an archaic platform very quickly. Just in case you were suggesting that HTML5 could fix this; I don't think so, but I didn't want to leave the room for doubt

Yes, the independent WiiTube group, we basically thought to buy the domain https://www.youtube.com/wiitv and redirected it to https://www.youtube.com/tv so that it works again on Wii, if it give the error 20110 or a protocol error when starting the channel you can patch it with wiimmfi or send an email to [email protected] or [email protected].

What are you on about

Plstic · Jan 16, 2019

port youtube-dl to wii if you want it so bad or ghetto rig some setup that calls youtube-dl and pushes it to wiimc.

leseratte · Jan 16, 2019

@NancyDS
First, you can't buy "youtube.com/wiitv", since everything starting with "youtube.com" is owned by Google.
Second, you can't redirect due to HTTPS
Third, the mail addresses you posed are junk
Fourth, you just have no idea what you are talking about.

Youtube stopped supporting the Wii, and so Nintendo enabled 20110 so you'd get a proper error instead of network errors. Fixing error 20110, or redirecting whatever site to whatever other site, isn't going to make youtube support the Wii again.

When Wiimmfi is going to revive the Wii YouTube Channel?

Will Wiimmfi revive her?

Yes

No, because Wiimmfi is for games and not for system applications
