I don’t know what to do to initialize your device. I’m going to do a special usb test only for you, testing a lot of combinations. I’ll ping you when I finish that test.

Here is the log of a WD My Passport Essential 2.5″ 500GB. WiiMC 1.1.1 mounts it most ot the time but playback fails after few minutes (see http://www.wiimc.org/forum/viewtopic.php?f=6&t=886#p3743). The log is similar to the one of the LeahCim post, with an error in the wake-up test.

System: Wii 4.2e, IOS58 (forwarder/HBC 1.0.8)
HDD: Western Digital My Passport Essential 2.5″ 500GB, 465GB NTFS partition + 615MB Factory UDF partition (the second one is hidden in wiimc)

New test, with wake up test fixed and a new method added.
Please test it.

I re-tested and after a long wait, loading the program but get an error message. “not find the sd card or usb “
I have used up to 4 different hard drives to no avail.

Please execute usb test app : http://www.wiimc.org/forum/viewtopic.php?f=4&t=1033
In that thread you’ll find some wiimc betas, you can try to use them
Are you executing wiimc from the channel?
We need to update the channel when we have enough usb logs to improve usbstorage

With this beta version of WiiMC, I have a loading screen at startup of WiiMC, I hear my hard drive reboot but it is not recognized. It is not recognized either if I disconnect and reconnect I.

EDIT : I use the usb 2.0 on my wii. I just tested my hard drive by plugging it into the USB 1.0 port (top) and is then recognized by WiiMC.

EDIT2 : My hard drive is recognized by randomly WiiMC (on the port usb 2.0 or 1.0) …

Both ports are usb2
loading screen? are you launching wiimc from the channel? Do you have the wiimc installed in the usb or in the sd?
The channel is not updated with last usb changes.
All tests have to be done using HBC & sd if possible
When all problems are fixed then a new channel will be created

As requested, here the new results.

Your device is not detected by the wii
USB_GetDeviceList. device_count: 0
Are you using power supply?
When you plug your device the wii can’t detect it, I’ve only seen this when an usb device need an external power supply

Ok, I think your device is fixed now

I did my tests with an external hard drive: WD My Book Essential 1TB USB 3.0
This external hard drive don’t work with WiiMC 1.1.1

is working with previuos wiimc version?
Your device has 2 logical units (GetMaxLUN: 2) maybe we need to mount the second logical unit instead the first one.
Test this wiimc beta & post results: http://www.mediafire.com/?og5w9l4h9dc4r11

USB Logs:
FlashDrive => working
2.5HDD => not working

Your 2.5HDD log is strange. Try again please, be sure to switch off & on when unplug, to reset your device, and wait about 10 secs before press A to be sure your device is up & spininng

I’ve got a Western Digital MyBook Essential 3TB drive. If I open WiiMC with with it plugged in, WiiMC crashes (DSI Exception). The same goes for the usb test app. I’m not sure what the exact error is since it only stays up for a second. I’m happy to provide more info or try any suggestions.

Weird, try to reinstall ios58 (http://wiibrew.org/wiki/IOS58_Installer) then try to reinstall hbc to use that ios
Now try the usb test app

Set your codepage in subs options
For spanish subs: iso-8859-1

The samba server is Visa Home Premium x64. I’ll do some searching to see if I can find the timeout value. I didn’t think of that before because i never had a problem from my other windows PC’s that use the same share.. But I bet the other windows PC’s send some kind of keep alive signal or something.

I’ll do some searching. I bet there is a registry value for the timeout, and i bet it’s set at 60 seconds right now.

If I don’t figure it out, i’ll post back with a wireshark log. If I find the timeout value, I’ll post it here in case others have this issue in the future.

Thanks for the tip.

I guess you want to say Vista. It’s very strange, windows samba server works pretty fine because we test smb client with windows, maybe is a router problem, I had to change my wifi router because my wii didn’t like it and had a lot of disconnections

Try to change channel & fix the ip address in the wii, there is a problem with some dhcp servers, something about DHCP NAK broadcast read this: http://code.google.com/p/mplayer-ce/issues/detail?id=582

[aka107]

woku & boondoklife remove from meta.xml in sd:/apps/wiimc, test and comment
If the problem is fixed then is a network problem in HBC and will be fixed in the next HBC

Most of my videos are encoded in xvid, and for many of them the rewind command goes back 10-15 seconds even though my rewind/fast forward settings are set to 5. Would be great to see this addressed.

Not possible, depend on index and codec, to avoid malformed images

[aka107]

Please check you usb device, the log is telling me that your device must work, because is fully compatible with the 3 methods.
Maybe your partition is corrupted.
how is partitioned?

Hello,
what is the best way of playing DVD’s from a SMB ?

iso ?
vob/ifo ?
img ?
bin / cue ?

smb is not fast enough to play DVD
uhmm, maybe is posible, I need to do more test
my fault check: http://www.wiimc.org/forum/viewtopic.php?f=4&t=1009

I guess .iso format is the best way

[aka107]

Please test this usb_test.dol program to debug your problem.
You can test 3 methods unplugging & plugging device and selecting another method, on exit a log will be generate in sd:/log_usb.txt please paste log here or in pastie.org if the log is big
http://www.wiimc.org/files/usb_test.dol

Also I’ve compiled wiimc using the last method (2) probably will work fine in your usb device but please post the logs from usb_test.dol
