Note: [[MPlayerWii]] does not play dvd videos only [[MPlayer]] made by Team Twiizers will do this! However below is an unofficial version that will read files off of burned dvds. It would be to everyones benefit if someone could merge the sources together and add all of the features from the latest Unofficial MPlayerWii to MPlayer so that there is no more confusion.

Most devices are supported by the library being used to provide usbstorage access, but some do not work due to various reasons such as noncompliance to standards. Such devices usually require special drivers to work and it would be an arduous task to track them all and write support for all of them. You can blame the manufacturers. Note: U3 devices do not work, this includes Sandisk's cruzer line.

=== Why isn't NTFS supported? ===

MPlayerWii uses libfat to read from FAT filesystems and it would need a similar library to read from NTFS. No such library has been written. Support for NTFS can be enabled through linux, but MPlayerWii does not run on top of wii linux. It is a direct port.

=== Why isn't there subtitle support? ===
−
MPlayerWii uses a wrapper to enable it to work with the wii. Unfortunately, the changes needed to enable subtitles on the wii cannot be done through this wrapper, but instead would require changes to the actual mplayer code. It is not clear if this will be done or even if it is possible at the moment.

=== Why is the picture corrupted with some videos? ===

Not much is known about this issue at the moment except that it can be caused by some video filters applied in a certain way during the encoding process, which will usually result in a green bar at the bottom of the screen accompanied by discoloration and/or other issues when the file(s) is/are played in MPlayerWii. This is not to be confused with a different minor problem which can usually be resolved by stopping playback and starting it again or by waiting a few seconds.
