DVDX

From WiiBrew
Jump to navigation Jump to search

DVDx is a homebrew application that installs a hidden "channel" which can be used by other homebrew applications to access home burned and factory pressed DVD content without the need for a modchip. This does not modify any IOS in any way, making it very safe. Please note that DVD+R (as opposed to DVD-R) discs will need to have their BookType set to DVD-ROM to work properly in Normal mode (if you have no modchip). PatchMii mode does not have this requirement, but requires a modchip.

Installation

Installation is simple - just run the DVDx stub installer. If you have a modchip, you may need to install PatchMii core before installing DVDx.

Development

Homebrew developers looking to add DVD support to their applications will need to use libdi, which has been added to libogc. libdi requires the DVDx stub.
