Our DVD player is stuck in a cupboard under the television where the baby can’t get it (and requires untying of handles for an adult to get to) while the Wii is on a shelf in easy reach. Mplayer also plays practically any video format under the sun so it’s even better than a DVD player. He created a dvd access library for the Wii Console, added the Mplayer media player and hey presto! DVD playback on the Wii. That’s exactly what Erant did with his libdl and DVDX installer! What are we to do? If you can’t get official support for something that the hardware can probably do, why not code it yourself? The Wii is a closed platform, but that hasn’t stopped enterprising developers taking a peek under the covers. Speculation on fan blogs about an upgrade to play DVDs on the Wii Console has been persistent for as long as I’ve been reading them, but it seems doubtful Nintendo will ever add this ability.
