I have exactly the same issue now. 🙁
While the settings are sometimes saved and sometimes get overwritten I’m pretty curious about the issue.
Everyday I just watch a movie about WiiMC so there shouldnt be changed anything in the settings.xml.
But obviously it changes!?

@tstwitter So exiting by home screen-button and then hitting the power button on wiimote when in the nintendo wii menu helps? I also assumed that it could depend on the way I close WiiMC but it doesn’t matter in my case. I even backupped a settings.xml which looks fine but nevertheless gets overwritten.

@jhb50 While you know the source: Is there any other point the settings.xml will be written than when saving some setting (or at least leaving the settings-tab)?
Or when does this happen:

which can happen if the file gets partially overwritten

?

Edit: I see. At least the videosFolder-Attribute will be changed and in my case the path includes umlauts and spaces so perhaps the issue is character-related.

Edit2: Okay. I found out that it is indeed a path related issue. If I remove umlauts and spaces everything keeps saved (I don’t know wether the spaces are really an issue but I removed them anyway and replaced them with underscores). Otherwise the settings.xml will be overwritten everytime. I opened a ticket for it (http://www.wiimc.org/tracker/index.php?do=details&task_id=481&project=1)

leon777 well, instead of using your time to spam around (1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, …) the same crap on every thread you could be more productive if you just implement the features you want to have. But you have to decide for yourself wether you want to be a spamming troll or someone who changes things he want to change.
I am pretty sure that begging, spamming and snivelling won’t help you anyhow.

No. Did anybody say that? No.

Maybe that makes the application a joke itself…

Maybe not. You should know that wiimc is open source. That means: if you want to change something you can do that.
But if you are just requesting for things you don’t pay for but you could change it yourself… with due respect, that rather would make your request look like a joke.

Think about it: Tantric and jhb50 (he is the one who did what you obviously doesn’t want to do: he created the wiimc enhancement pack => http://www.wiimc.org/forum/viewtopic.php?f=10&t=1863 ) invested their spare time to make you a gift.

…and why didnt u fix youtube yet yall lazy

Why you don’t want to use the official youtube channel ( http://www.nintendo.com/wii/built-in-entertainment/#/youtube )? Or are you just too lazy?

And why do you call the developers lazy while they have done so much for you?

As far I know WiiU won’t run homebrew

And as far as I know it runs yet inside the wii sandbox: http://hackmii.com/2012/12/hbc-release-for-a-new-wii-u/

Did you google it at all?

will there be a new huge version please new gui and streamer

That could be indeed possible (ie if you create this version).

You can improve it the way you want, as tantric wrote here:
http://www.wiimc.org/compiling-instructions/
http://www.wiimc.org/submit-a-patch/
if you work under linux: http://www.wiimc.org/forum/viewtopic.php?f=5&t=1947

That way you will learn something interesting, you have the chance to give something back and you can improve your reputation.

Dare something and don’t try to create an excuse for not satisfying your own whishes.
