Wii #0592 - Super Smash Bros Brawl (USA)

[ziddey]

Have been following all 43 pages . I feel like I have known some of you for years now.

Media question:

I am considering buying Staples brand DVD+R DL's. They are $30 for 25 in the US. Has anyone had any experience with these?

--

Also, good luck to any of you out there who may be working on a DVD5 rip. Godspeed.

I don't know off hand what staples uses for their dvd+r dl's. Maybe if you check around cdfreaks or afterdawn, you can get more information on them.

Question:

People here said that DVD-R DL has a fixed layer break by design, so it doesn't matter if you try to specify one...

 

[legendofninny]

custom layer break should not be possible with dvd-r dl

 

[Torup]

Thanks.


Will try. Post results later.

reburn it with nero this time in lowest speed and again....the Wii cant even start reading it!I cant hear any noise trying to read it!

Please please someone reply with any help!I cant understand why the same disc worked fine with the jap release but has problems with the ntsc version..

I've got a 1.9g wiikey and burned the wizard iso with the .inf replacement and that's it.
it plays fine but every now and then i get a green screen that says the game disc could not be read. anyone else getting that?

i have problems with memorex +r dl. my wii always goes to a black screen with white text saying an error has ocurred yadda yadda. after that its always could not find disc. am i the only one with that problem?

I have had:

Unreadable disc
Black screen with white text saying the error has occured, etc

I also use memorex +r DL and they work great in my wii, once I:

Burned with Nero at the slowest setting
Cleaned the lens
Adjusted the dvd pot to 500 ohms per the cyclowiz site.

What's funny is, when I used to boot my wii with a burned disc inside, it would take the dash about 3-5 seconds after boot to show the game photo on the game channel. Now after the steps above, by the time the system gets to the dash, it's already there and ready to rock....

i'm getting very fed up now, every 5 minutes that stupid error message "the disc could not be read" the game is unplayable, i'm going to buy some new dual layers soon i think.

 

[sekhu]

just throwing this out there, but is it possible that the dump is bad? Seems almost everyone is having problems with the DVD9 version of the game, with green screen and black screen messages, crashs and the like. Though DVD5 versions which are striped of movies work fine.

anyone with problems able to do a pie/pif scan of the disc?

anyone with problems able to do a pie/pif scan of the disc?

when i first burned the disc i made imgburn scan for errors and it found none, yet i still got these errors.

an imgburn scan won't necessarily reflect if the wii can read it. usually, pc dvd drives are better able to handle errors and retries than other drives.

I'm sure a lot of people are springing for the cheapest dl discs they can find, and/or trying to burn too fast. For example, best buy has a 15 pack of dynex (best buy brand) dvd+r dl for the same price as a 5 pack of another brand. These discs have an atip of ricohjpn d01, which can be argued as not that great to begin with. But it's also faked by a lot of other companies. The dynex says it's made in hong kong, which most likely means it's fake ricohjpn d01.

I grabbed a pack of these myself today to do some experimenting on since it was "cheap". Almost done with a first burn right now. I'm pretty sure it'll absolutely bomb out at pie/pif. I'll post the results when I have them.


That said, look for discs that use real mkm


dl is a tough animal


quickedit: still on the first layer but as is, there's already a bunch of pif 4's. with single layer discs, i would have probably thrown it out and reburned with a pif of 4. That said, I'm expecting the second layer to be way worse

Isn't the cyclowiz just like the d2ckey, where it won't work unless you manually enter the layer break. I'm pretty sure this doesn't work on d2ckey without the layer break entered in imgburn.

Only guessing mind.

Anybody had success with Office Depot DVD+R ?

Aone 8x DVD+R DL (nice and cheap and what I use for 360 games)
Layerbreak 2084960
Pal Wii
Wiikey 1.9g
3.2E
Burnt at 2.4x with imgburn
Untouched iso
Did the update (allready have dupe channels)

Only problem I have seen so far was jerky music on intro,
but seemed to fix itself once deflicker was turned off.

Jerky video means you'll get slow mo game too I've found. Deflicker off and set it to 60hz sorted it for me. You can turn deflicker back on once it's loaded and play but remember to turn it back off before quitting or it will just blank screen for good in 60hz mode.

I use Aone's, the only dvd's my liteon likes. I've also read on here a few times that you're supposed to burn at a fast speed and they don't like slow speeds. All confusing stuff.

For the record, I burnt at 4x (the lowest my writer allows) and the game crashed during the SSE on one of the videos, I burnt again at max speed which seemed to be 6x and everything works great. I always copy at max speed for normal wii games and had no bother.

Want to see some garbage? The scan isn't even finished yet but it's clear the wii won't be able to handle this:

Is there a receipe anywhere for how to rip the movies / whatever to get a DVD5 from the Wiizard iso?
