Sorry if this has been answered before, but I couldn't find it. I have DML 1.4 installed, and I can play GC games from the SD card without issue. It appears that I have lost my ability to play retail Wii discs. Is there anyway to retain both? I keep seeing comments that retail game support was re-added back to DML, but I don't know how to re-enable the ability to play them. Can anyone point me in the direction?
It SHOULD just work. What is happening when you try to load the retail disk? If it's just loading the last game you tried from SD, it's because your loader is set to use the "old" boot method. How that's changed, though, would depend on which loader you use. Which one is it? You would need to both switch to the "new" method and delete the file SD:/games/boot.bin for it to know it's supposed to boot a retail disk in that case.

When I load a retail Wii game, I'm trying to use the normal disc channel on the top left of the first page. The disc spins in he slot, and I see a picture of a wii disc and a GameCube disc spinning. After about 10 seconds, the wii tells me that the disc is unreadable. It's not loading a game from the sd card. I use USB Loader GX 3.0 to load Wii Isos from an external drive and GC isos from a SD card. Should I still delete SD:/games/boot.bin?

If the disk channel is saying it's unreadable the that's a really bad sign. It does that check completely by itself (DM(L) has nothing to do with it) so it means that the drive really can't read the disk correctly or the system menu is refusing for some reason (the only thing that occurs to me that would cause it to refuse on an actual retail disk is if it was a NTSC disk on a PAL Wii or visa versa but there may be others). As far as deleting boot.bin, it would still be a good idea.

Install libogc, devkitPPC, the minimal system. I think that's it.

cheats in dios mios (lite) needs to be placed on the same partition as the games to work. for wbfs it makes no difference on what partition the cheat files are.

I'm using compnent cables and the image comes out a little to the left, leaving a black bar on the right side of my screen. I tried different tv's (crt's and hdtvs) but still have the same problem. I don't have the regular rca cables to try it. I've searched everywhere but cant find an answer.

I'm now closing this topic, DIOS MIOS Lite has been updated to v2.2 (on August 6th 2012), and is now updated at the same time as DIOS MIOS, on DIOS MIOS website.
Please refer to this thread from now :

    @SylverReZ if you could find a v5 DS ML you would have the best of both worlds since the v5 units had the same backlight brightness levels as the DS Lite unlockable with flashme

    A woman with no arms and no legs was sitting on a beach. A man comes along and the woman says, "I've never been hugged before." So the man feels bad and hugs her. She says "Well i've also never been kissed before." So he gives her a kiss on the cheek. She says "Well I've also never been fucked before." So the man picks her up, and throws her in the ocean and says "Now you're fucked."

    Agreed, that why I try to buy all my games on disc, Xbox anyways. Switch games (which I pirate tbh) don't matter much, I stay offline 24/7 anyways.

    @BakerMan - you can still "own" digital media, arguably easier and better than physical since you can make copies and backups, as much as you like.

    The issue is DRM
    +1
  • cearp @ cearp:
    You can buy drm free games / music / ebooks, and if you keep backups of your data (like documents and family photos etc), then you shouldn't lose the game. but with a disk, your toddler could put it in the toaster and there goes your $60

    :rofl2:
  • cearp @ cearp:
    still, I agree physical media is nice to have. just pointing out the issue is drm

    i like physical media because it actually feels like you own it. thats why i plan on burning music to cds

    It's nice to not have to have a lot of physical things though, saves space

    Nor clothes 🤮 . Saves on time, soap, water and money having to wash them. :D
