For anybody who needs a cover url config, here are my settings, copy it to your config.txt:

Code: 
cover_style = 3d
download_id_len = 6

#flat
cover_url = http://boxart.rowdyruff.net/flat/{ID}.png
cover_url =+ http://wiicover.gateflorida.com/flat/{ID}.png
cover_url =+ http://awiibit.com/BoxArt160x224/{ID}.png

#3d
cover_url_3d = http://boxart.rowdyruff.net/3d/{ID}.png
cover_url_3d =+ http://wiicover.gateflorida.com/3d/{ID}.png
cover_url_3d =+ http://awiibit.com/3dBoxArt176x248/{ID}.png

#disc
cover_url_disc = http://boxart.rowdyruff.net/disc/{ID}.png

Ok, I came home on lunch break and decided to give it a go on a second Wii. This one has cIOS12 and a 1GB PNY card (also v4.0U). I was able to reproduce the crash every time after some testing. If I load a game without changing to the coverflow view it works fine. If I change to the coverflow option, again, it works. BUT, if I switch coverflow views a few times and then attempt to load the game, it crashes in the same manner. It does this on every game presumably, as I tested around 20 games and all exhibited the same issue. I am no programmer, but it seems to me to be some sort of memory leak somewhere. I took a picture of the screen and will upload it somewhere if you need to see it, although I think someone posted a video in a previous post of the same issue. Hope that helps!

Hmm, I've got a feeling this won't work?
It should be {ID} not {$ID}
And there's an extra ] on the last line .png]
Did you test these settings?

oggzee, i don't test it yet, but in your README ...

Code: 
#ÂÂ Multiple URLS can be specified for cover_url_* options
#ÂÂ They can be in the same line separated with space, example:
#ÂÂ cover_url = http://site1.com/{$ID}.png http://site2.org/{$ID}.png
#ÂÂ Or in multiple lines using =+ to add instead of =, example:
#ÂÂ cover_url = http://site1.com/{$ID}.png
#ÂÂ cover_url =+ http://site2.org/{$ID}.png
#ÂÂ cover_url =+ http://site3.net/{$ID}.png
What is the right token? {ID} or {$ID}?

OK thanks! I think I know what the issue is. I'll try to get a new version up in a few hours.

By any chance do you have the 3D cover option enabled?

I didn't adjust any options at all. Just copied from your archive to the SD and ran it

So if the 3D cover option is enabled in the config, it was default.

Ok, So I will just apologize now but I spent all night last night trying to figure this out. I am using a 200gb Maxtor Onetouch II Drive and I am trying to get this to work. I formatted the drive in FAT32 (which took like 2 hours by the way) then opened up WBFS Manager 3.0 and formatted drive. I put 2 games on there (I know these games work as I have tried them on my usb flash drive) When I open up Config USB Loader it seems to load slowly and if I hit mount drive it just goes through the 30 second time out. I tried waninkoko's 1.5 loader and when I tried to format the drive with it **I Believe** it said ret -6 and that it could not format the drive. Any Ideas as to why this won't work? I believe usb loader is set up right since I can play games from my flash drive. I would assume the problems rests with the hard drive somewhere. Anyone see what I'm doing wrong?

EDIT- So there seem to be a lot of issues with the onetouch drives on the compatibility list, just ordered a 160gb WD drive as many people confirmed it as working. Gonna try it out

{ID} is the correct form.

Sorry about that! I have no idea where that $ came from, well, it was very late in the night so I must have dreamed it up

Could someone try this out quick?

http://sharebee.com/4846b32b


Just extract it as normal and run it. Go into coverflow mode (hit B twice) and then beat the crap out of it (press left/right/down/up) a bunch of times and then try to load a game (and then hopefully 2 or 3). And let me know if it works.

I'm trying to rule something out and this works perfectly on my wiii (cIOS 13a).

Thanks!

And BTW, this is still v34beta
