divx/xvid AVI files will play just fine. I haven't really tried H264 playback yet but that *should* work as well.

WMV files have been reported to play too.

i just played a high quality 700MB avi with this and it played without a single flaw from start to finish. I would just like to say this is a blessing to the end user and thank you for such an amazing application (I am very impressed!)

the good:
amazing quality and supports many formats that all play with ease couldnt ask for a smoother media solution

The things that could make this better:
naturally a GUI that goes without say (yet i say it doh...lol) and i was thinking what if you could hook up a USB based external HDD to play your media from! imagine that would fill the void/lack of media on the wii!

(they sell cheap at bestbuy 90$ for a 300 GB western digital external hard drive i use one for my 360's media actually)

all in all i would be happy if this were the only release! this application is just an amazing contribution to a ever growing wii homebrew scene gr8 work i will be watching this close as it matures!

Great work. Getting a direct port of MPlayer is just one step towards getting XBMC on Wii one day. I hope you continue this project

I'm going to be one of those annoying people who asks for new features while the product is still young -

CIFS support would be extremely useful!
