As if anyone ever doubted the MPlayer CE team.

DVDs are in fact working again, even though I still get pixelation but not as much as before. Some movie files take longer to load, but I hope that fixes any type of freezing or sudden stoppages during movie playback. And that damn characters bug was fixed so now my movies with apostrophes will playback fine.

Fixed the widescreen issue i was having unfortunately where my USB hard drive was working perfect before now seems to work only sometimes...back to previous release for me!!!, a little way off from the XBMC status though but getting there. Some kind of art work display would be nice for each of the video files Etc.

Files that also played perfectly before now dont play and the thing freezes up. upgrade at your own risk........pants!!

you cant make a .wad outta this, you can only use a forwarder.

i recommend the animated one you will find on wadder.net

cant remember the author but it kicks serious ass

i guess i will try the forwarder.i never did this before is there a chance of me messing up and getting a bricked wii.

also the forwarder it is still like a wad putting the mplayer on my system menu right because i did install a wad from the mplayer ce before this one.

A forwarder is just like a wad (it is a wad in fact) except that it loads from the sd card rather than the wii itself. It carries no more brick risk than any other wad, and the MPlayerCE forwarder from wadder.net someone else referenced kicks serious ass and is tested to be safe. Just make sure the actual .dol is installed in the right directory under apps, or else the forwarder wont start properly.

There are no Widescreen releases as of yet for 0.5. 0.4 had a widescreen verision. Ill let you know as soon as a widescreen version is out for 0.5
What? You wanna start learning to *Read* Changelogs!

- SMB now much more robust - thanks to DennisLKJ for smb.c fix
- libfat cache improved for speed and stability
- USB ethernet now fixed with USB 1.1; USB 2.0 fix requires an updated cIOS
- Added ability to manipulate picture using the nunchuck
- Updated to latest MPlayer revision
- Now using subfont.ttf instead of font folder - use mplayer.conf to change font size
- Merged widescreen and 4:3 pack - now MPlayer will use the appropriate loop.avi automatically
- Improved modchip compatibility for DVD

And this is much more reliable than previous versions.

Glad this version has sorted out the bugs in SMB. In v0.4 I used to get out of sync audio when watching movies stored in a windows shared directory. This seems to have been addressed so I can now download movies and watch them via wifi on my wii perfectly

Yes it is as good as other releases, it's better, The End. More stable? Yes SMB hard to break? yes DVD for modchip users fixed? Yes and the rest, I think you'l find this is a good release.
So what if it doesn't compare to other media players? are we we to compete? Erm No
Some formats won't be supported and I'm sure by now you know that.

Was that reply called for? No, i merely said read changelogs, that is why they are there, you know to see what's new?

This is why people brick their wii's on this site, they don't read like preloader info/installing/uninstalling etc.
