I am having a problem when using my image background for PAL (default) in wide-screen mode with size 640 x 530, it code dumps...

However if I use an image 640 x 480 in wide-screen mode (i then get the black line at the bottom) it works fine...

this was also happening in 7.1 occasionally... now it happens every time I start the loader in 7.2

. So great that I can play most NTSC Games now on RGB

. Settings Menu is also really great. But why is there no Cover Download Option anymore?

@jone@home can you please tell me the Cover Cords of your Widescreen background for V7.2? I also want to check it

@narolez Ive checked now the games on DVD and with Gecko only the ones that need Force 50HZ work, the ones like No More Heroes (that need 60HZ) also don`t work on DVD. Only green Screen the same with your Gecko USB Loader. So its a problem with Gecko and Force 60HZ! Was 2 days away and had no Internet Connection there. Sorry that it took so long to reply to your Question.

The only problem I still have with the loader V7.2 is the Games that need Force Pal 50HZ don`t work.
The Games like No More Heroes (need Force60HZ) work still very great with V7.2. Would be great if the Gecko Force 50HZ could be in one of the next Versions. Its needed only for a very few US and JPN NTSC Games but who knows how many in the future will also need this to work.


Let see what V8 brings when its updated to USB Loader 1.5

did you have time to look at that annoying wiimote not turning off when you press the power button on the wii when in the loader?

I thought I fixed it in 7.0. Please let me know if it doesn't work

report bug again
always "error initilizing network" (connection test okay)
this is not my background that is used (I think that is the default background implemented in the .dol)
after several tests: background and covers and don't work

i return to version 7.0. but why this version weighs 2.77Mo while version 7.1 and 7.2 (7.2_1.5) weigh 630Ko?

7.1 worked fine for me. If you are using widescreen, did you set wimages_path?

7.0 had a install bug, I removed the auto-resize function so it becomes less than 1mb again

i still have trouble with cover downloading.
using: V7.2 (version based on 1.4 - made by hungyip84 (17/04/09 )

this is my config.txt
images_path = SD:/apps/usbloader/images/
wimage_path = SD:/apps/usbloader/images/w/ *
wimages_path = SD:/apps/usbloader/images/w/ *
background = bg.png
wbackground = wbg.png
download = 1
covers_coords=478,110
console_coords=40,71,340,290
console_color=0,15
savesettings = 1
widescreen = 1

* which one is correct?


what the loader does is downloading a few covers, but he shows them not propperly in widescreen. meaning that the cover is wider than the dvdbox in my bg.
but the mayor problem is, that not all covers can be downloaded so i get the white no cover template and no further covers can be downloaded either, only if i reboot.
this happens even if i add a cover with the id manually

The second one is the correct one.

About your second question. That's as designed. Since someone complained that the loader keeps downloading the cover when no cover is found, i set a flag to disable the download whenever download fail. Not sure if it is a better way.
