Hacking The Homebrew Channel slow startup...

[peddengba]

After I click the button to start the channel it takes like 15-20 seconds before the channel starts... then it says it reads the SD card (Other channels start in 1 sec, so I wonder if there is something wrong here)

Does anybody else have this "problem"? Or is it just me.

If it is a problem... suggestions about what to do please. Reinstall the channel or what?


Thanks...

if you have a geckoSD or any SDloader in the gamecube memory slots thats why

Probably not 15-20 seconds... but mine takes a while too.

I suppose it's looking for content on your network before it starts up. Maybe later betas / the final release will be a bit quicker.

Ok thanks guys, I guess it's sniffing for updates... it seems to act that way.

I was just curious if I installed it correctly... which I guess I did

If you have a lot of channels, it's probably just a draw issue with the GUI.

It shouldn't take thát long. When I start the channel, the SD-loading icon will display for about a second or so and then the list of homebrew will appear. The network icon at the bottem-right takes a few more seconds to initialize, but you don't have to wait for that.

I can count to 10-15 slowly before something happens... If that helps with the troubleshooting

Reinstall the channel.

If it still occurs, it's probably your SD card.
