Hacking Homebrew Browser

[barcode1999]

yeh you could make a homebrew swap shop that relies on peer 2 peer transfer from different wii's if bandwidth becomes a problem

I love it - it has joined the crucial homebrew ranks of geckoos and the homebrew channel!
Where do i donate?

 

[linuxares]

I myself think this software should be included in the HBC later on, my friend that just gotten a Wii (yesterday) new to homebrews will love this software!

second, is ther anywhere i can find a rename list for the folders, ive renamed all my apps since ive gotten them to keep them organized, but now the app wont recognize i have them and ive customized some of the icons and meta.xmls so i dont wanna re download all of them either.

Right here is a listing of application names to directory names. Hmm, I didn't think people used custom meta.xml files? About the icon.png files, HBB will not download the icon.png file of application if that application is being updated.

Homebrew Browser v0.2.0b

13 July 2008 (v0.2.0b)
- Increased buffer size so applications that require a lot of files will work
- Added HTTP no-cache so users behind a proxy will always retrieve the latest version of the apps list

Most emulators have been added.

Most emulators have been added.

ok....but the FCEUltra is the versione with no wiimote support....

 

[teknecal]

Unofficial emulators have now been added.

SD Reader need an update

 

[Devante]

Was the WiiBrator taken off? ;>

 

[Gamesphere]

Great work teknecal, But I must say that most of the apps on the Browser are out of date. Any plans on updating them to their respective current versions?

 

[kedest]

It's gonna be a lot of work to keep up with every new piece of homebrew and updates.
So perhaps you can set up a sort of wiki, which everyone can edit and update with new version information. Then you let the browser get its data from that wiki.

 

[teknecal]

Apart from Another RPS game, DMP, Genplus, Snes and SMS plus which other applications are out of date?

You can also post on http://www.codemii.com when applications are out of date so that I can update it to the latest version.

 

[Hitto]

Awesome.
Brilliant.

I really love this application but there is one media player missing, that I would love, if you could include it. That would be the GeeXboX. As an alternative to the Mplayer.

http://wiibrew.org/wiki/Homebrew_apps/GeeXboX

Otherwise this is one of the best wii homebrew. And really fast with updates!

Keep up the awesome work

This app should absolutely get the recognition it deserves. It is truly the killer homebrew app

I have been wondering however when it will correctly read large SD cards? My 16GB card is read randomly as a 75MB card, a 500MB card...just random numbers. Still works fine and homebrew downloads and extracts correctly to it, so only a minor annoyance. I really love this app!

Sorry to necrobump, but I followed the instructions here, and despite changing "setting_server" from 0 to 1, it's taking forever to connect for the 1st time.

Is it because I'm connected to Wiimmfi and RiiConnect24?
