Hardware Identify WODE Jukebox

[Flaya]

I got a WODE Jukebox chip/stand that I removed from a Wii. Is there different revs of these, and if yes, how to identify it?

I wish to know so that I can put the correct FW and files on a SD card for it.

There's only one version of it, so just try and find the most recent firmware. I'm thinking about removing mine from my Wii since there's not really a point in using it anymore, now that Nintendont is working so flawlessly

Sweet.

I have all files I could find for it already, so I'll be good.

Yeah, softmodded is way better, but since I have it, I may as well have the proper updated files in place too.

So, is Nintendont just as good at running GC games as the Wode?

Nintendont is perfekt,its also working with games that streams audio while the wode doesnt do that if i'm correct.

WODE supports audio streaming as well

WRONG!!!

There at least exist 2 different revisions of the WODE:

1.) The very first WODE had "Wii" and "Wii_Power" labeled on their lower right corner of the main PCB instead of the most common one, which reads "Host" and "Host_Power".

2.) The very first revision of the WODE might run "BOOT Ver: 1.00" instead of the common "v1.01". Check the "ABOUT" menu of the WODE.

Aside from the labels, the very first revision might run a MX25L6405MC-20G SPI-NOR flash which is max. 50 MHz in speed against the very common MX25L6405DMI-12G used on the "HOST" labeled WODE.

Even the RAM between these two revisions might have changed:

The "Wii" labeled WODE might run a MT48LC16M16A2P-75 IT: G while the "HOST labaled WODE" commonly runs a MT48LC16M16A2P-75 IT: D instead. Their difference inbetween is (at least) "Standby current", "Self-refresh current", "Operating current" and "Autorefresh-current". Maybe there are more differences between these two RAM types. At least their size is equal.
