Wii Midia v0.1 alpha

It probably means it can play a VIDEO_TS folder. If you can fit it on your SD.

Well, there's this homebrew that lists files from usb drives, so if someone enchances it to read files too, perhaps you can see movies with an external drive.

Is this the killer app that would make everyone want to try Wii homebrew?

What about a DVD Disc?!

The wii(modded) has been capable of playing dvd's for ages, almost since the beggining.... "wii beta dvd player", i've been using it for ages to play avi's and full dvd's... tho i will say the quality with divx is crap

 

[MikeyTaylorGaming]

cant wait for this one

The Wii is capable of running DL discs, it can easily play a DVD movie, the Wii isnt equipped with a crappy drive...

Actually playing DVD movies on the Wii will wear out the drive much faster than usual, so the drive isn't that great...

Getting information out of your ass doesn't count towards real proof.

I remember reading that in the original post about the DVD player, which was made by the app authors.

I could be remembering incorrectly though.

Playing DL Discs in ANY drive causes it to wear out more. Everything wears out eventually.

i guess ill just use it to play some XVIDs

 

[KamuiX]

Also this famous USB external drive support code will be perfect add on for this project!
Because Wii's drive will die soon enough if we let it read a bunch of media disks.

 

[OSW]

this hasn't even been released to the public yet, and we are assuming it's all true...

 

[lolsjoel]

Bad ass. I'm really just jumping in to the homebrew scene for the first time today, so I'm really excited to see this all play out.

 

[techforumz]

Can I play DVD with this?

nope, the wii isn't capable of playing a dvd movie.

Yes.

Video Support:
MPEG, MPEG2, MPEG4, DIVX, XVID, MOV, WMV, VOB and more.

By "dvd" i'm sure alot of people, like me, thought "dvd movie disc"

Doesn't change the fact that this piece of software can playback VOB's. If it can mount the DVD-drive, it is capable of playing a "DVD movie disc" (regardless of what that does to your laser... )

Only two catches: CSS and SD-only. He stated that it would only read from the SD card at first. Also, nowhere did he mention DeCSS, libdvdcss, or anything similar. We can only hope... Also WiFi streaming would be nice for internet radio and the likes.

Any one know when it might be ready

QUOTEI hope to have this cleaned up and released for everyone in the next few days.

It's probably going to be released the end of this week. At least that's what the author said on the Consloe-scene forum.

I can hardly wait to test this, it will be a real contribution to the homebrew scene.

 

[DaWiis]

I have Xbox XBMC/360/PS3.

But I'm really looking forward to this ;D
Great job.
