Well then it doesn't work exactly as intended, as for some reason my NTSC Gamecube titles boot in NTSC rather then PAL.
Exactly. The only downsize is that copying files from USB to SD isn't exactly done at lightning speed (10 to 15 minutes are pretty common). Still pretty useful, though.So what happens, you store the dml games on a usb, select it and it gets copied to the sd and then launched? That could be useful, it's almost like launching from usb but not...
Ok, MassiveRican, the "problem" is that your secondary partition is an extended partition with one logical ntfs inside ( I guess ). postLoader and the forwarder 11 support only "primary" type of partition. You can have up to 4 primary partition on hdd. I will check if I can easily add support for ebr record...

Postloader seems to fail to start usb loader gx almost randomly when trying to start a game. :S
Black for a while and then goes to homebrew channel instead.Postloader seems to fail to start usb loader gx almost randomly when trying to start a game. :S

It's on the sd card.Black for a while and then goes to homebrew channel instead.
Is gx on usb or sd ?
Tried it some more now, most often it fails the first time, i get back too hbc or priilbooter gui depending on how i started postloader, and when i try the second time it starts.Postloader seems to fail to start usb loader gx almost randomly when trying to start a game. :S

AHHHH!! It was such a small oversight. Unbelievable... Yes there's no need to have postloader read EBR, I didn't know I could have 4 primary partitions. I'll change it with easeus and it should fix all my problems.Anyway I think that EASEUS Partition Master can convert logical to primary on the fly...Ok, MassiveRican, the "problem" is that your secondary partition is an extended partition with one logical ntfs inside ( I guess, looking to your mbr.dat ). postLoader and the forwarder 11 support only "primary" type of partition.

Edit: Postloader now recognizes all games on NTFS Partition... and finally Wiiflow app works on NTFS partition as well... I FREAKING LOVE YOU!! no but seriously I do lol.
Update to postloader 3.67.2... should be solved.
EDIT: for some reason if I do not make another ios reload before executing it, gx fall in hbc...
Okay - following your last reply, stfour...

If there is one thing that you want *manual* it's the Video Mode. You can have only two types of a Wii - a PAL one or an NTSC one. You can have TV's of all-sorts though. From what I understand from your reply, postLoader loads PAL games as the appropriet PAL fromat and NTSC games as the appropriet NTSC format - that should not be the case. The game should be launched in the mode that is default on the Wii - PAL on PAL Wii's, NTSC on NTSC Wii's so that there are no colour/stretch issues on the TV the Wii is connected to, and in my honest opinion, there should also be an option to manually change the mode if needs be. I personally have a PAL TV and a PAL/NTSC universal CRT TV (quite rare nowadays) so it's not an issue for me, but I bet there are people who do have problems with this.
Suma Sumarum, DML games should be launched in the default Wii mode if you want it automatic, not in the Disc Default mode since that causes games to go either Grayscale or in a Pink-ish palette. For now, I'm switching to Neogamma as DML is really the only reason why I even installed postLoader (I don't want to waste the precious laser life on discs, and Neogamma requires a disc in the drive to work properly).
Sounds absolutely fantastic. Forgive me for maybe commenting in a harsh fashion, but at least in the regard of loading ISO's, it's the Wii region that we should think of the most, not the region of the disc. I mean, if a user is dumping a disc/downloading a disc, he/she is well-aware of its region. The ultimate purpose of loading it is launching it in the appropriet mode, at least in my opinion.Yes, zfa, I think it is a good idea.

Espect this in the next release. But dml need a disc in the drive (ok, postloader do not access to it).

I can't wait for the next update after his "promise", postLoader does look like a shortcut to many Wii functions and it's quite a handy tool seeing that it's perfectly capable of Autobooting already. Great job and keep it commin' four.
