Hacking Problems @ 576i

[Zerreth]

I just switched from a Wii->HDMI adapter to a RGB SCART Cable -> HDMI Scaler.
I tested 576i on both the HDMI adapter & the SCART+Scaler setup. Both didn't work.

USB Loader GX (Games not loading in 576i)

Some games simply won't boot when I put the Wii in 576i mode. Forcing PAL50/60/480p doesn't work.
I just get black screen with the Wii eventually rebooting. This is not a PAL/NTSC iso issue as some PAL games have the same problem ( Rhythm Paradise ) If the Wii is set to 480p in System then everything works fine.

Nintendont (NTSC only output)

The HDMI adapter displays everything fine because it can cope with both NTSC & PAL signals, however the SCART + Scaler Setup simply pushes the NTSC signal though and shows up as red only output on my monitor.
Forcing PAL for games is required to get rid of the NTSC red only output.
Is there any way to force the Nintendont UI to display in PAL mode ?

Which version of USB Loader GX are you using? If it's not r1244 can you try it?

I don't think there is an option to force resolution on the Nintendont menu but you should be able to set your USB Loader GX to auto boot Nintendont and pretty much skip it.

It looks like RGB and NTSC doesn't work right except if you force PAL60 on the Wii: https://gbatemp.net/threads/rgb-on-ntsc-wii-yields-red-screen-can-homebrew-in-rgb-be-done.337806/

Was running r1239, now running 1244 (with forced PAL60)

Working on r1239:
Mario Galaxy
Zelda Skyward Sword

Working since r1244:
Rhythm Paradise
House of the Dead Overkill
Zelda Twilight Princess

Working on r1244 but not tested before:
New Super Mario Bros WiiMariokart Wii

Still not working:
Warioland Shake Dimension
Mario Galaxy 2
Wii Sports
Xenoblade Chronicles
Metroid Prime Trilogy


I've got USB Loader GX already setup to skip the Nintendont UI and force PAL60, but it would be nice if Nintendont just worked too.
