Hacking Will The Wii Read DVD+R DL Disks?

[jus199]

I have a DVD+R DL (dual layer) burner and im curious if the wii will read the +R dual layer format?

A Wii has to be modded to read any normal DVD discs, burned or out.

But I presume you've already done that. So DVD+R DL should work...

 

[Livin in a box]

Yes, as long as you have a chip in your Wii. Brawl is a Dual-Layered disc, and the Wii (well, most anyway) can read that. You'd only need it though if you wanted to burn the full version of Brawl.

I have a dc2pro chip and it works great reading fuji dvd-r single layers

I bought some memorex +R dual layers and it wont play any of them....3 out of 3 different games
maybe its memorex?

Well I don't have one because I don't need them, TBH.

But the Wii can only read the standard DVD colour; that silver colour. So that's why.

Just use single layer disc. All games except SSBB are single layer and those discs are a lot cheaper.

there are isos in the DVD5 range that have all the movies taken out

and its more then likely your modchip is old. only the newer / updated chips can read DL

color of the DVD has no difference -.-

Then you should send it to Nintendo and they'll fix it for free...But that's if you want to.

 

[jus199]

lol tell them it wont read burnt disks



well i tried some fujis and burned them at the slowest speed 2.4x and it still wont work. the wii makes loud clicking noises on both disk so I guess it wont read DL disks
I wonder if the original brawl works.

 

[doom5]

Fuji Dual Layer Media = crap.
Memorex Dual Layer Media = crap.

Verbatim made in Singapore, burned at 4-6x on a quality burner is the way to go. Burning slower will actually create a disc with lower quality PI and PIF scores.

A good burner would be an Pioneer Dual layer burner, Benq, Optiarc, recent Lite-ons, etc.
