How do I use YAOSM 1.8? I have already downloaded it from nintendo-scene.
I use wiikey, my wii is NTSC.
So I can't use this DVD player in my wii?? I thought YAOSM wasn't necessary to use the program, just to watch double-layer DVDs...
Don't double post
You're disk is probably bad, you might want to make a new disk. Try using clonecd.
This is from the wiinja team:

The use of DVD PLAYER Software for GC MODE can cause harm to your laser in the long run. Apparently the wii lens isn't made for continuous loading, and using that app (on DVD5 or DVD9) will; cause the lens to deteriorate quickly over time.
Good to know that. My wii is already keeping loud clicking sounds when loading dvd. Don't know if it's anything to do with laserThis is from the wiinja team:

Sorry for the double post, but I still don't get it.... what difference does it make if I use clonecd? The problem is the file that is inside the .rar file and I can't get put it out... how did it work for you aslacker55? Didnt it ask for the rootfs.bz2 file?

So you burned the .dvd file, right? Also with mine once I select bootldr.dol and press A, it goes to black screen and it loads the homebrew (it takes a couple of seconds). It doesn't ask for the rootz.bx2 file when I do it.
For everyone who are tired of booting this through GCOS or didn't even get that far...
The DVD player (DVD capable MFE player) uses the same discheader as the WiiKey configuration disc. It's a known fact that this discheader was blocked with the 3.0 firmware. yaosm 1.8 does on the fly patching of the discheader which is why it boots on firmware 3.0 with a yaosm 1.8 chip.
However there is no reason whatsoever for this disc to use the WiiKey discheader. It's just plain stupid so I've put together a disc creator tool that will create a disc with a firmware 3.0 compatible discheader and one header for each region (no need for a regionpatching modchip). If you create a disc with it, it should boot on any modchip, firmware 3.0 or not.
However, for dual layer discs, you will still need a dual layer capable modchip, like, for exampe, yaosm 1.8.
You'll find the tool here: http://psx-scene.com/forums/yaosm/58736-mf...ie-support.html
Oh, and it will create a plain, good old, .iso file for you to burn with your favorite DVD burning software.
