Hacking Is there a way to watch DVD on Nintendo wii?

[Naxster]

As the title is there a way to watch a DVD disc on Nintendo wii?

I've downloaded and installed WiiMC, but with no success.
Is there anything else i should do? Because i've read that this is THE media player for nintendo wii if you want to play DVD discs.

You need a Wii with an old disk drive.

In other words, you need a Wii manufactured before 2008. (If you could install BootMii/boot2, you can definitely play DVDs.)

Your BootMii installer probably told you if your Wii is compatible, but if you want to double-check just go online and see which drive chip is in your system by looking up the serial number.

Yep, you're pretty screwed. My personal Wii is the special edition black Wii with Wii Sports and Wii Sports Resort I bought in 2009, and it doesn't work with DVDs...

I think i installed Bootmii as IOS, and i just install the latest version of WiiMC and i said that it wont work with this Nintendo wii -.-

So there is no other way for me to play DVD from the nintendo wii?

DVD from the drive? No. You can put the movie/video in your ext HDD or Pendrive and load it via WiiMC.

Naah, it takes to much time to download the movie and then put it inside HDD etc etc. I think i just stick with XBMC instead where i just stream everything in HD quality.

Oh well, thank you for the answers!

Yeah, it's easier when you have something else to play your movies and stuff, also XBMC is a great program.
No problem dude
