I've been trying to use WiiMC to play a DVD but it keeps telling me that I'm using an invalid disk.
You could use a USB HDD or buy a old wii drive which you could build in, but that's not very easy and your warranty would be gone. Even a modchip would not work because it's a D3-2.SuperTrever said:Dang. It says I have GC2-D3-2 (v2). Theres absolutely no way to work around this besides buying a mod chip?
Okay. I'll figure it out thanks!FIX94 said:You could use a USB HDD or buy a old wii drive which you could build in, but that's not very easy and your warranty would be gone.

D4 has the same moddability (none) of D3v2Hi. I have a black nintendo wii model RVL-001 (In other words, it can play gamecube games) that came out in 2006, and I am trying to play dvds on it, but Wiimc claims that my wii is not capable of playing dvds, but when I go to the site to see what dvd chip my wii has. The image above/below shows what comes up. None of the dvd chips are the D3 ones, so I don't know why my wii isn't working. Can someone please help?

Anyway those results are very unconclusive, the only 100% reliable way to know is looking at the drive electronics yourself
Actually no black Wiis were made until 2009 (the copyright year on the sticker is not a manufacturing date) so it's extremely likely to be at least a D3, therefore probably a D4 according to the site
Sure, buy an older optical drive to replace the one you haveSo does this basically mean there is no way for me to play dvd movies on my wii using a physical disk?

Preferably after checking if you do actually have a no-DVD drive
Yeah (just like if you wanted to replace it, it's easy as long as you have the proper tools)How can I check if I have a no-DVD drive? Do I have to take my wii apart?
