Hacking Wii remote in WiiU mode

[portugeek]

I have a sensor bar plugged in, and it's working, but when I select vWii from the WiiU menu I'm not able to select a display option. Both options seem to be highlighted with a blue border for some reason.

All I can do is press B on the Wii remote to cancel, OR press + to set the display to the WiiU Gamepad only. Which I don't want. I want to be able to use my vWii on my TV.

Anyone come across this issue?

A quick solution is using a classic controller to select TV on the menus, if you have one

Thanks for the quick response.

Apparently the Wii remote doesn't see the IR lights on the sensor bar if the Wii remote is pointing at it from more than 2 feet higher than the sensor bar. It doesn't like that sight angle apparently. I had to raise the sensor bar so that the Wii remote is essentially staring straight at it.
