Wii Midia v0.1 alpha

After months of coding and porting and ripping and rewriting Wii Miidia as I like to call it is about to be released into the wild. I have a few people beta testing it now and helping me work out some bugs. Wii Miidia is something that many people I hope will enjoy as I put alot of time and effort into this project.

Wii Miidia as you can guess is a Media Center for the Nintendo Wii based off of XBMC. Since the Wii comes with it's own Weather Channel I had decided to strip the weather functions from Wii Miidia. There are still a few bugs that I am trying to work out but one of the best features this offers in my opinion is the ability to listen to Shoutcast Radio on the Wii. Right now this only supports streaming files and files stored on the SD Card, however since there is recent developments by SVPE I hope to be able to include USB Storage devices as well in the future.

Video Support:
MPEG, MPEG2, MPEG4, DIVX, XVID, MOV, WMV, VOB and more.

Audio Support:
AAC, MP3, WMA, WAV, OGG, MID and more.

Controls Are:

A = Play
B = Pause/Resume
- = Previous Song/Chapter
+ = Next Song/Chapter
Dpad Left = Rewind
Dpad Right = Fast Forward
Dpad Up = Change Aspect Ratio (NTSC/PAL/Wide/Standard)
Dpad Up + B = Zoom In
Dpad Down = Change Visual in Audio mode / Change Subtitle in DVD Mode
Dpad Down + B = Zoom Out
Home = Settings Menu
1 = Return to Main Menu
2 = Return Previous Menu
Power = Shutdown Wii

Wii Miidia will at first be released as .elf and will need to be ran via TP Hack, Homebrew Channel or any other way you like to load your ELF files, However the final version will come in .elf and as a channel for those who would like easy access to the application. Well that is all for right now I hope to have this cleaned up and released for everyone in the next few days. I would like to also thank bushing for all of his hard work as well as the rest of the guys from #wiidev and Wiibrew.org without them I never would have been able to get this done.

No download available yet...

Awesome!

@Janjo777: Wtf, why would you like to watch DPG videos on the TV? ..

 

[jan777]

well aside from i only know sites to where i can download full movies but in dpg format,my cousins might also want to watch altogether and we cant be squeezed in such a small screen, so yeah i might want it on a tv

This is great, now I'll be able to play anime on my tv that I can't play on my DivX player.

 

[teonintyfive]

Sounds better than the other player that was released previously!

This is fantastic news, got many files i'd like to marathon off my machine onto the TV conveniently, and my divx/MP4 player is on the way out

Another great use of the Wii!

Doesn't change the fact that this piece of software can playback VOB's. If it can mount the DVD-drive, it is capable of playing a "DVD movie disc" (regardless of what that does to your laser... )

Well, the controls say:


Controls Are:

A = Play
B = Pause/Resume
- = Previous Song/Chapter
+ = Next Song/Chapter
Dpad Left = Rewind
Dpad Right = Fast Forward
Dpad Up = Change Aspect Ratio (NTSC/PAL/Wide/Standard)
Dpad Up + B = Zoom In
Dpad Down = Change Visual in Audio mode / Change Subtitle in DVD Mode
Dpad Down + B = Zoom Out
Home = Settings Menu
1 = Return to Main Menu
2 = Return Previous Menu
Power = Shutdown Wii

That doesn't mean it plays dvds, it might just read dvd files from say, an sd.

 

[fischju]

Streaming with the wifi from a network would be awesome

 

[notnarb]

Even if it can't read dvd's now, it won't be long before it is able to

Nobody said that means it can play dvds

 

[teonintyfive]

By DVD mode it means .vob files.

 

[Whizz]

It probably means it can play a VIDEO_TS folder. If you can fit it on your SD.
