Homebrew My Wii always crashes when I selected a specified video on WiiMC

I click on one video and it crashed my Wii every time.

So someone can maybe be of more assistance, are you saying it only happens with one specific video but not others? Or it crashes with every video you try?

Only this video

Only this video

Then I would say it is a fault of the video and not WiiMC. Possibly unsupported audio or video format/container or a corrupt file.

Or not using the ''actual'' latest version?

Well the video is [email protected].

Well there's your problem. WiiMC's maximum supported resolution is 1280 by 720. Source.

Download Handbrake. You can use it to scale and transcode your video to a supported format. I've had success with the settings described here.

How much FPS Max on 720p?

30 for NTSC, 25 for PAL. I'm not sure how WiiMC will handle higher frame rates. It may drop them, or it could just crash. If you're transcoding anyway though, you might as well save yourself the storage space and set a cap.

Really? There's no way the wii can handle those frame rates on 720p

My mistake, I hadn't realized that you were asking about the frame rate for 720p playback specifically.

I'm not sure what the max stable frame rate would be at 720p, but it's somewhat irrelevant. If you're going to transcode your video, you might as well drop it to 480p. If you manage to play a 720p video, WiiMC will just downscale it to the Wii's maximum output resolution (i.e. 480p) anyway. See here.

The frame rates I listed should be attainable at 480p, assuming you make use of the configuration options I linked to above.

No, it can't. Wii is DVD era technology so try and keep your videos within DVD standards
