Using Nintendo Wii to play RMVB format on TV!

The purpose of this tutorial is to increase the functionality of your Nintendo Wii by adding video capability of playing multiple video formats. You will not lose your Wii gaming functions, but instead it would add more applets to make your Wii more useful. Since this is a softmod, it can be removed anytime from your system, or you may simply install this onto your SD card (it will not void your warrenty).

This tutorial will guide you through the whole process including adding homebrew channel and later add an applet within homebrew channel which it will allow Wii to play any video format, including "rmvb". Also, special thanks to the homebrew team and its developers to make this possible, all credit belongs to the developers.

Video Sample:



Here is what you need:

1. A Nintendo Wii with menu 4.0 and below *I only tried it on 4.0U anything higher, you will need to do it at your own risk*

2. A SD card of any size, but for better performance, 2~4 gb (unless you have a fast SDHC class 6 card) ~ *I used a 2gb*

3. Wifi/internet connection for your wii

4. Download and extract the following files
homebrew_browser_v0.3.2.zip: http://1fc8c85a.seriousfiles.com/
hackmii_installer_beta2.zip: http://330170b8.seriousfiles.com/
