I wanted to know when will it be able to play perfectly h264 mp4 ( or mkv ) 720p or 1080p files?
Its a great job thnks
Just copied this from mplayer ce page on wii brew
HELP! Some files play back choppily!
Are you trying to play an h.264 encoded video and/or high definition video? The Wii just doesn't have the hardware to handle it. For more information, see
http://code.google.com/p/mplayer-ce/wiki/h264
Can somebody than explain to me why devices like WDTV can do it, and the wii lacks the horsepower? I'm not asking for HD but SD mkv./h.264 files would be nice (for anime purposes).
Also, has anyone experienced problems with dual audio in .ogm files (and subtitles likewise)?

The WD TV is a consumer device produced by Western Digital that allows users to watch videos, as well as view images and listen to music, from USB drives. It is capable of playing High-definition video through an HDMI port, in addition to standard video through composite cables. It can play videos in most common formats, including MPEG1/2/4, WMV9, AVI (MPEG4, Xvid, AVC), H.264, MKV, MOV (MPEG4, H.264), MTS, TP, TS. It can play music in MP3, WMA, OGG, WAV/PCM/LPCM, AAC, FLAC, Dolby Digital (AC-3), AIF/AIFF and MKA formats.
The hardware starts with a 300mhz TangoX MIPS 4KEc from Sigma Designs, which has 100MB of memory. [1][2]
The WD TV Live processor, in the other hand, features 500MHz cpu speed, a 333MHz coprocessor, a 333MHz DSP, and up to 1 GB of 64-bit DDR-2 DRAM. The WD TV Live comes with 512MB of DRAM and 256MB of NAND Flash memory installed. Western Digital has tweaked the original Sigma SMP8600 Family design slightly by including 6 video Digital to Analog Converters (DACs) which should give it the ability to handle high-def content with ease.
