'''DVDX''' (sometimes formatted as '''DVDx''') is a homebrew application that installs a hidden "channel" which was used by other homebrew applications to access home burned and factory pressed DVD content without the need for a modchip. It was named after its original title ID, DVDX. As of [[HackMii Installer]] 0.7 DVDX is dead and has been superseded by the [[Homebrew Channel]] 1.0.7.

'''Q''': Why is this homebrew now redundant?
'''Q''': Why is this homebrew now redundant?

'''A''': With the addition of the AHBPROT flag in the TMD, DVDX became much more widely installed. For better convenience, the [[Homebrew Channel]] has been updated to allow apps to fully access hardware, and [[libogc]] was updated to use the full hardware access to read DVDs instead of loading DVDx. The only reason to continue using DVDx is for homebrew that has not been recompiled with a newer libogc.
