Modernized YouTube for Wii U

YouTube SR Wii U (Modernized YouTube) I'm excited to announce a mini-project I've been working on: YouTube SR Wii U! It's the familiar YouTube app, but with modern graphics. I not only updated the initial graphics displayed when you launch the app (The images are at the end of the post so you can see a preview of what I did.), but also several internal elements, such as the boot sound, etc. I'll let you discover the rest for yourself! This app is based on the latest version of YouTube for Wii U and is region-free, so it doesn't matter if you have a US, Japanese, or European console; it will all work. The app is packaged in WUP format, so you can install it like any other app or game using your preferred installer. Please leave any feedback in the comments of this post. (Note: You still need to use the GiveMiiYouTube plugin. This is a graphics update, so the code remains unchanged. I encourage you to read the README for the release on GitHub to understand everything.) GBATemp won't let me upload the file directly because it has a very low file size limit, so you'll have to go to GitHub to download it. I know it's something very simple, but I wanted to contribute to the community; for me, it's an achievement to be able to share it. Edit: Due to intellectual property reasons and to avoid future problems, I decided to remove this mod while I investigate the matter further, I will probably make the modified files available for download soon, so as not to distribute the complete application. You will need to have your Wii U modifiedI'll make a tutorial since you'll need to use FTPii to replace application files.

So, a month ago I set up an external hard drive with my Wii U. It's an older one, but it's about a terabyte in size, and it's powered via a separate cable(it has its on DC power source that I plug into my strip). I installed about 220 gigabytes worth of games onto the hard drive, when suddenly nothing wants to install. About a week after this happened, I my Wii U stopped booting into Aroma. I fixed this by just re-copying over the Environments folder and setting up the plugins, sigpatches, etc. It's still not installing games, though. NUSSplii tells me the game is corrupt, WUP Loader GX2 doesn't do anything. Both install games to NAND just fine. The Wii U will copy things to and from the hard drive just fine, so the Wii U software has no problems interacting with the hard drive. The games I already have installed also still work just fine as far as I can tell. Everything reads and boots. I could probably stand to stress test it more, but Black Flag ran for about 90 minutes before it shut down because I left it alone for an hour. Does anyone have any ideas on what's going on here? The hard drive seems completely fine, just homebrew apps don't seem to want to install things to it. Also worth noting is I've tried both back USB ports, and tried power cycling the hard drive.

Thanks.
