Also, something very important you failed to mention: Do you have to install the MPlayer off of the SD every time you need to watch a DVD? I realized that the Wii doesn't store the MPlayer in it's console. Or am I missing something here?
I followed your instructions step by step, but it didn't work on my Wii. I was able to install the MPlayer, I see the menue and everything. However, when I attempt to play the DVD, the program simply freezes and doesn't respond, which forces to do hard shutdown of the whole system. Do you know what the issue might be?
not that it matters but my hombrew channel is upside down. It works like a normal hombrew channel and when I load an app it works normally but the hombrew channel itself is upside down... how can i fix this?
@ bubLrap Be sure your wii can play wii backups first. Check your serial number to be sure you dont have the new chip set. Use mplayer ce 0.76 it works on 4.2U wiis.
i have all the apps on my wii buh when i was installing dvdx i clicked the bottom 1 the i tryede the top 1 like u did and it says error and a bit of writing so when i go to mplayer and click play dvd it wont load
I am having a lot of trouble getting this working. I have done exactly as detailed in the video however when I get to the part where I play (3:20 mins in) it just will not work. The wii simply does nothing, Iv left it for over ten miuntes and it just sits there with the mplayer screen frozen.
To get dvdx on 4.1, simply use the Hackmii installer package, which is also capable of installing Bootmii and Homebrew Channel. Don't bother with the dvdx in HBC.
Cool thx I was messing around with my wii and it was 4.1U updated and figured out how to downgrade it back to 3.4 now I am playing Movies on my 3.4U again Thanks for the great Video.
hey wiiologi, sorry a friend sent you the last msg!, basically, i use the dvdx istaller then load the dvd using mplayer, the initial title screen comes up the writing is still on the screen tho so if i select dvd play it just freezes, bit odd i know!, maybe i'm not using the correct controller??. sorry to be a pain, hope you can help. i'm having the same prob with any games(havn't yet burnt any) but the downloads get to the title screen then i can go no further
@wiiologii i think he means the dvd menu that comes up for movies automatically sometimes, that give the same options as the application on the wii....just that the one on a dvd player you can see bonus features and deletes scenes and stuff...
@alfiemay78 you gotta jerk off to justin bieber for 32MIn NO MORE NO LESS!! then a squire will pop up on your title screen now get you dog or go buy a dog any dog and have that dog fuck the squire that pops up on the screen MAKE SURE THE DOG CUMS then lick the come off and you DvD still wont work hope this helped :)
@Bigpimpinbaby17 currently yes you can at the time I posted that comment (1 year ago) this was not the case. I will be posting new videos with updated content soon. Thank you for your feedback Bigpimpinbaby17.
Do you have system menu 3.3 or below? You have to use the patchmii installer option if you have a mod chip. If you have system menu 3.4 I'm sorry there is no work around for this. Uninstall dvdx and reinstall with the patchmii option.
i know i must seem like and iddiot buh how do u get the homebrew channel i mean i know what it is buh how to get it without zelda twp i don know so can anyone help me??
Currently there are 2 ways to enjoy the great benefits of the Hombrew Channel. One, by installing a mod chip which is considered a "hardware mod" and two: performing the twilight princess hack which is called a "soft mod" because it uses software exploits to run the hombrew channel. There are certain requirements you must meet in order to install the HBC. If you want a mod chip you will need to find other tuts on this if you want the soft mod then check out my video on this.
Ok so i did that and still have the same problem...i saw another video and it said if you have it chipped it wouldnt work, is that true because i have mine chipped.
Hello, I have version 3.4U, do you know if this and twilight princess hack works on my version? Im asking this because I dont know if 3.4 means that its going to work with 3.4U. Thanks
Hey man Like the Vid I make Homebrew Videos too and you might wanna update this because DVDX Now Works for 3.4 I just made a video right now if you wanna see it here it is
alright cool just wanna help i did a video a little while ago for dvdx on 3.4 it was suppose to be in HD but the HD button never went all my other video have the HD IDK what happened

HBC is for wiis that have internet....do you have internet connected to your wii?
Otherwise, you can go to wiibrew and directly download the apps you need.

Hello chaoticprince,
Now it makes sense to me.
If you have system menu 3.4 and a chipped wii it will not work. If you have system menu 3.3 and below it can work.
Try this if you have 3.3 and below
Unistall the current dvdx
Reinstall dvdx BUT this time selelct the "patchmii" install
thats it. It should work let me know.
