In the mean time, if your Wii is set for 480p and you run a game in Devolution that only supported 480i, does the Wii change its video output back to 480i? (this never was clear to me and I personally cannot test it)

I am not sure about that either.
Since I am using Devolution in vWii with HDMI cables, I suppose the output is 480p, isn{t it?
If tjat's so, then games that do not support 480p are put back into 480i, all the games I have so far are quite good (most of the cases) but I need to be sure what popular games were only in 480i, since the only one that I can't run right now in vWii is Zelda Collector's Edition.
 
Ah, well then that's not possible.

Yes, if you have 480p, it will change to whatever the Game starts with, 576i 480p/i , at least in my case.
 
Damnit, I'm having a nightmare getting a game to verify.

I've got all but one of my games working without issue, However this particular one is being an absolute nightmare. Lego Star Wars II - The original Trilogy.
I made a rip with CleanRip from my near mint condition disk. It came up on CleanRip as verefied. I then went onto my PC and confirmed that with the redump list, it's definitely a perfect rip.

When I went to authenticate it however, it decided to throw an error that I haven't come across on any forum. After loading the ISO, it flashes twice. I then insert the disc, and it goes back to the homebrew channel. It does not flash 4 times to indicate that the device cannot be loaded, and all other games that I have work on the same device. The rip is verified, from my exact disc, and the disc is immaculate.

After all this I tried a compressed DiscEx iso, and I had the same results. It loads it, starts flashing, then goes back to the menu when I insert the disc.

Can anyone reccomend anything to me? I'm completely out of ideas and I own the blooming game...

Weird since the game seems to be working completely on the compatibility list.

Do the following:
CHeck under the gc-devo folder in both root of the SD and the apps folder for the created verification file of that game which should have the ID GL7P64 (if it is NTSC), delete it and do the verification once again to see if it passes now.

If that doesn't work. download the ISO for your region (Just be sure it is a validate rip for Devolution) and do the verification by just inserting your original game.

Now, in the worst of cases that the past two options do not work, you might want to consider using Dios Mios instead of Devolution. There is no other option in that case but that.

Thanks, as it happens I've tried both of those ideas without any luck. I'm loading the game from the SD card at present, though I'm getting a portable HDD in a couple of days which I'll try again with. Also, Dios Mios isn't a solution for me, since the primary use is on vWii.
Is there any way for me to see any sort of error log to try and figure out why it's throwing this? I haven't got any special hardware however.

What app vre you using to run the game:
Normal Devolution, Wiiflow, USB Loader, Cfg USB?
Or is it just that it doesn't even pass the verification process?

Can you get another copy of that game and verify with that one?

Normal Devolution r200. It simply won't verify, the direct ripped and verified ISO works on Dolphin etc. I've also tried a different iso, scrubbed iso, compressed iso, same problem every time.

Have you tried making a clean up of Devolution?
I mean erasing everything related to Devolution and just putting it back into the SD?
Or maybe even try another SD to see if it completes the verification with that SD.
It could be possible that the issue might be a corrupted file.

Yes and Yes. Also tried my new portable HDD, still no luck. Rest authenticate without issue still.

Well the only extremist action you can do now is to verify it in another Wii with your Wiiimote and see if it passes.
If not then...
I think it's time for a fix for Devolution. You are performing the authentication in a normal Wii or one of the newer ones?

Just tried it on another Wii. (My brothers, bought at the same time.)
No dice.
Both are Launch EU models with full GC compatibility, same issue either way. Yay DRM...

This is getting quite out of control, it's just to much that has been done and no luck?
And my guess is that is not the folder path since you load the iso for the verification...

Borrow another copy of that game and be sure you are using PAL ISOs too since your Wii is European, right?

ISOs I've been using have been PAL or the 4 rips I've personally done from the disk.
I also doubt that there is a chance in hell I'd be able to find another copy of that game from anywhere, lol.

And yeah, the folders are all correct. As I said, my other 12 games authenticate without issue
