Homebrew [RELEASE] Restored YouTube Support For Wii!

[incidentallyscribble]

The download no longer works. :-( It downloads as an HTML file with an incorrect extension of a zip. Here is a snapshot of the HTML file when the extension is corrected...

I know this is a bit old and I don't know if this application is still supported/being developed or not, but I just soft modded my old Wii recently and would love to have the ability to watch Youtube on it.

-Thanks!

Will fix.

Someone test this, it was not uploaded by me and I cannot test it now. If it is not real, I will find my old PC and reup it later.

Nevermind I had the other wiimc in there as well and it was causing it not to function I removed the other and this now works! :-)

well if you have your vwii softmodded then theres a chance that i might work but due to my wiiu being bricked and will never be fixed i can't say

I tried Wii MC a few months ago on vWii and it doesn't play any video files. A shame you bricked your vWii... how did you do it though...?

 

[7Epic7]

I have been using this and it is working great but I can't figure out how to rewind or fast-forward, I can only play and pause. does anyone know how to skip to a certain place in the video or am I missing something obvious?

Time to watch 10 hours of Nyan Cat, fresh from 2009 > : D but seriously, this is great! the only thing missing as far as media support was YT. I just hope they don't get rid of netflix/hulu support P

Thank you but youtube didn't work. I got "no results found" message.

You must choose "YouTube search" in wii MC.

 

[oneset]

Thank you, when I chose "search" it worked.

Hello, I'm trying to use this with my own youtube.py server (found the link earlier in the thread) but every search gives me "Your search did not match any media files.". I've set the servers in onlinemedia.xml to my IP's, and the server does work because going to

my-ip/cgi-bin/youtube.py?query=hello

does give me a list of results. I'm using the WiiMC from the mega link earlier. Can someone help?

edit: got it to work. use apache2 as a web server, configure to run python scripts, give the user www-data permissions to whatever folder you choose for the downloaded files. don't forget youtube-dl!

 

[Deleted member 466238]

For some reason YouTube isn't working for me.
Wherever I try to search something, it just says: ''No Results Found. Your search did not match any media files.'' so I can't find any videos.
I'm choosing both ''YouTube'' and ''YouTube - Search'' options.

Please help :C

I give up trying to keep YouTube working on Wii.
