Recently I've decided to upgrade and change my USB drives for vWii, so I transferred wbfs from my old flash drive (which is NTFS, too, and is recognized by the homebrew with no problems) to my new one. Then bam, "USB not initialized". I don't know what to do.

Good morning,

try the FAT32 format, then use "wii backup manager" to manage your games with your USB key.

Recommend ==> external hard drive with a Y cable for a better connection

Already formatted it into FAT32 with the Backup Manager (my pc gives me the option only format either into NTFS or exFAT), and dumped my games through the same Manager. Homebrew Launcher now doesn't even show me the apps so I can't enter USB Loader GX (I've tried to connect USB drive after Howebrew Launcher displays the homebrew, but then it doesn't initialize). WiiFlow doesn't recognize it.

EDIT: Funny enough, my main drive that I was using for a vouple of years is NTFS too, BUT by USB Loader it's recognized as FAT32.

EDIT2: USB Loader was set to SD recognition, and SD card was FAT32. My main flash drive is recognized as NTFS and currently is working.

    I want a 120hz 4k tv but crazy how more expensive the 120hz over the 60hz are. Or even more crazy is the price of 8k's.
  • K3Nv2 @ K3Nv2:
    No real point since movies are 30fps
  • BigOnYa @ BigOnYa:
    Not a big movie buff, more of a gamer tbh. And Series X is 120hz 8k ready, but yea only 120hz 4k games out right now, but thinking of in the future.
  • K3Nv2 @ K3Nv2:
    Mostly why you never see TV manufacturers going post 60hz
  • BigOnYa @ BigOnYa:
    I only watch tv when i goto bed, it puts me to sleep, and I have a nas drive filled w my fav shows so i can watch them in order, commercial free. I usually watch Married w Children, or South Park
  • K3Nv2 @ K3Nv2:
    Stremio ruined my need for nas
  • BigOnYa @ BigOnYa:
    I stream from Nas to firestick, one on every tv, and use Kodi. I'm happy w it, plays everything. (I pirate/torrent shows/movies on pc, and put on nas)
  • K3Nv2 @ K3Nv2:
    Kodi repost are still pretty popular
  • BigOnYa @ BigOnYa:
    What the hell is Kodi reposts? what do you mean, or "Wut?" -xdqwerty
  • K3Nv2 @ K3Nv2:
    Google them basically web crawlers to movie sites
  • BigOnYa @ BigOnYa:
    oh you mean the 3rd party apps on Kodi, yea i know what you mean, yea there are still a few cool ones, in fact watched the new planet of the apes movie other night w wifey thru one, was good pic surprisingly, not a cam

    Damn, only $2.06 and free shipping. Gotta cost more for them to ship than $2.06
  • BigOnYa @ BigOnYa:
    I got my Dad a firestick for Xmas and showed him those 3rd party sites on Kodi, he loves it, all he watches anymore. He said he has got 3 letters from AT&T already about pirating, but he says f them, let them shut my internet off (He wants out of his AT&T contract anyways)
  • K3Nv2 @ K3Nv2:
    That's where stremio comes to play never got a letter about it
  • BigOnYa @ BigOnYa:
    I just use a VPN, even give him my login and password so can use it also, and he refuses, he's funny.
  • BigOnYa @ BigOnYa:
    I had to find and get him an old style flip phone even without text, cause thats what he wanted. No text, no internet, only phone calls. Old, old school.
