First of all I don’t have that much of experience with using WiiMC so the solution to my problem might be kinda obvious to one or another. So what I’m trying to do is play back movie trailers (preferably from Apple Trailers, but any other source might do it as well) with WiiMC.
What I’ve done so far is adding one line in my onlinemedia.xml file:
So this playlists links to different other plx-files that link to mov-files.
From what I’ve read WiiMC is capable of playing mov-files (probably up to 480p), isn’t it?
But the error message is that the playlist doesn’t contain any supported file format.
No, these NAVI playlists link to xml files which contain the links to movie files, and require a processor. WIIMC does not support processors so these NAVI links cannot be processed by WIIMC. My attempts to link to the movie files directly are intercepted by itunes and attempts to access those files fail. You can read more in the NAVI sticky.
